Introducing Exa Zurich

Exa, a modern AI search engine company, has announced the opening of its first European office in Zurich, Switzerland, focusing on machine learning research. The new office is led by former Google employees Max Buckley and Felix Kroner, with Max spearheading its expansion. Zurich was chosen due to its status as a rapidly growing AI hub, home to notable companies such as Google DeepMind, Nvidia, and others, and prestigious institutions like ETH Zurich and EPFL. This move allows Exa to provide same-timezone support for its European customers and access local talent, while offering researchers the chance to join a leading AI startup without relocating to San Francisco. CEO Will Bryk emphasized the importance of meeting the best talent where they are, and Zurich's burgeoning AI ecosystem makes it an ideal location for the company's growth. Exa is actively hiring researchers and engineers in the fields of information retrieval and machine learning.
