Start up should compensate with equities, otherwise definitely established

If you call it automatic driving you’re not qualified for the role

Same roles/responsibilities? Same locations? It all comes down to who you want to work with. Digital marketing stuff can be fun, but there's a lot of bullshit going on with the ML claims in that sector. Make sure the infrastructure isn't garbage (eg; there already exists a path from data collection to production/integration of models, +compute resources).
