Our technically diverse team comes from every corner of the world. Each of us has a different story - and a different journey to coming together around our shared goal. Together, we're solving compression.
1
Developing the next generation of compression technology using AI, we’re here to completely rethink, reshape and revolutionise what’s possible.
Our technology will set the world free from the bandwidth limitations that could break the internet. It doesn’t just deliver the answer. It completely resets the standard.
80 years ahead
Deep Render is leading the way in AI Compression, with multiple foundational patents protecting our IP. If traditional compression keeps developing at its current rate, it’ll need 80 years to catch up with where we are.
Reshaping compression
Deep Render is completely reshaping compression, from the inside out. By centering on Deep Learning, Density Estimation, Unsupervised Learning and Quantum techniques, our codec is already 80% better than state-of-the-art of traditional compression.
United we stand
Our 20-strong team brings together the largest group of AI-based compression specialists in the world. Together, we won’t stop until we’ve solved one of the greatest problems of the 21st century: data and bandwidth bottlenecks.
Saving the internet
ISPs spend billions on improving broadband speed and availability. With the Deep Render codec, global bandwidth increases by five times, instantly. And by applying a software solution to an infrastructure problem, it’s effectively doing so completely for free.
WE'RE NOT CHANGING COMPRESSION.
WE'RE
COMPLETELY RESHAPING IT.

JOIN THE COMPRESSION REVOLUTION.
We're always looking for talented Machine Learning specialists who want to build the future. If you want to push what's possible in an environment that's as challenging as it is exciting, take a look at these roles:
CHRIS FINLAY
SENIOR RESEARCH SCIENTISTChris is an applied mathematician by training and a machine learning convert. During his PhD at McGill University, he studied numerical methods for nonlinear elliptic PDEs. Afterwards, he did a postdoc in ML focusing on density estimation, and adversarial robustness. Chris is an avid bird watcher; in his free time, he’s often found chasing rare warblers about town.
VIRA KOSHKINA
SENIOR RESEARCH ENGINEERVira holds a PhD in Mathematical Sciences from RMIT University where she researched stochastic ecological models of species distribution and extinction. She’s a big fan of speciality coffee, drawing, and skiing when she gets the chance.
ARSALAN ZAFAR
CO-FOUNDERArsalan holds a degree in spacecraft engineering from Southampton University and an MSc in computer science from Imperial College London. Arsalan enjoys walking, and has completed the 100-mile national South Downs Way. In his free time, Arsalan preaches veganism.
CHRI BESENBRUCH
CO-FOUNDERChri holds a degree in mathematics and economics from Goethe University, an MA in business innovation from St.Gallen, and an MSc in computing from Imperial College London. In his free time, Chris is either searching for life extension technologies or preparing for a zombie apocalypse.
CHRISTIAN ETMANN
RESEARCH SCIENTISTFormerly a postdoc in applied mathematics at the University of Cambridge, Christian worked on deep learning with mathematical guarantees, generative models and efficient methods for large-scale medical imaging. Besides compressing data, he likes cooking and playing guitar.
JAN XU
SENIOR RESEARCH ENGINEERJan hails from Sweden and graduated from Imperial College with a degree in Civil Engineering. He finished his Masters at UC Berkeley, working with SLAM and machine learning. When Jan gets a minute to spare, he cooks, travels, practises music and can sometimes be found singing his heart out, to the accidental listener’s discontent.
ALEX CHERGANSKI
RESEARCH ENGINEERAlex holds an MEng in Computing with Machine Learning from Imperial College London. Before university, he was competing in Mathematical Olympiads (e.g. the IMO). When he is not training artificial neural networks, he is training his neurons how to juggle, windsurf or play musical instruments.
ALEXANDER LYTCHIER
SENIOR RESEARCH ENGINEERAlex holds a physics degree from UCL and a computing masters from Imperial College London, after which he worked for two years at one of the largest telcos in Hong Kong. Alex enjoys playing the piano and can play all the classics from memory. If you leave Alex on your machine unattended, he will install Tmux.
JONATHAN RAYNER
RESEARCH ENGINEERJonathan holds a degree with a triple major in Mathematics, Physics, and Applied Mathematics, and an MSc. in Theoretical Physics. In his free time, he tries his best to become more rational, enjoys powerlifting and watching professional Starcraft, and dreams of one day beating his girlfriend at Dance Dance Revolution.
LEWIS BRESLIN
HEAD OF TALENTLewis holds a BSc in Criminology with a specialisation in Criminal Psychology. After giving up becoming a mad criminal, Lewis now has seven years of experience working in talent. Before Deep Render, he was helping grow tech-focused businesses across numerous sectors. In his free time, you can find him playing chess, watching sport and most recently climbing mountains.
MYLES DOYLE
ML PERFORMANCE ENGINEERMyles holds a BA in Mathematics and MSc in High-Performance Computing, both from Trinity College Dublin. He spent the next two years developing scalable software in a European supercomputing centre working with industry partners. In his spare time, he can be found falling off various objects, including climbing walls, skateboards, and even the floor.
SAIF HAQ
MLOPS ENGINEERSaif graduated from the University of Sheffield with a first-class degree in Computer Science. He strongly dislikes Microsoft Windows, despite using it every day. In his free time, you will find him trying to automate himself out of the world, or playing Tarkov.
BILAL ABBASI
RESEARCH SCIENTISTBilal completed his PhD in applied mathematics at McGill University, where he focused on building numerical methods to solve nonlinear elliptic PDEs. He spent the following 3 years in the video game industry, indulging his affinity for geometry (and video games!). When he’s not in front of a computer, you can find him in the kitchen trying out new recipes, or running around town trying not to roll his ankle.
SEBASTJAN CIZEL
RESEARCH SCIENTISTSebastjan has completed a DPhil in Mathematics at the University of Oxford, where he studied higher dimensional geometric shapes that play a role in string theory. In his free time, he likes to generate pseudorandom notes on a guitar or piano (he refers to it as “improvising”) and play volleyball.
ED WISE
HEAD OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTYFollowing an undergraduate degree in physics, Ed worked for various research companies before completing a PhD in Physics at Imperial College London. He then joined a top-tier patent firm, becoming qualified as both a European and UK patent attorney. Ed spends much of his free time with his two young children, but tries to fit in some swimming and modern board games where he can.
AARON DEES
ML PERFORMANCE ENGINEERAaron has completed both an MSc in Mathematics and an MSc in High-Performance Computing, with speciality in numerical methods and novel computing technologies. He enjoys exploring the overlapping regions in research domains and previously spent 2 years at a Supercomputing facility in Ireland, working with researchers to find ways novel technologies could aid and improve their science. In his spare time he'll likely be found in or around the ocean.
