How we work

The Dessa team loves to do things that others think are impossible. We translate cutting-edge deep learning techniques from research into applications  that help solve challenging real-world problems in areas ranging from finance to astronomy. In all of our work, we value creativity, collaboration, learning and producing massive impact.

Atlas and Orbit 

Informed by our real-world experience, we’re also building tools that make it easier than ever to experiment with machine learning at scale and put it into production.

Fuel for the journey

Building the future of machine learning is no easy feat. That’s why we make sure our employees have access to a range of workplace resources and extras that help them thrive inside and outside HQ.
