• Focus on areas such as:

• Computer vision: object detection, classification, OCR/text recognition, camera calibration, multi-object multi-camera tracking, 3D scene modeling, and map building.

• Deep learning techniques: self-supervised learning, transfer learning, few-shot learning, and active learning.

• Collaborate with software engineers and product managers to deliver robust, scalable AI solutions.

• Provide technical feedback on experiments and code reviews, ensuring high-quality outputs from the team.

• Mentor and guide junior researchers, fostering their growth and development.

• Conduct original, publishable research and contribute to the company's intellectual property portfolio.

What you need

• Education: Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field with a focus on computer vision and machine learning.

• Experience: At least 10 years (with a Master's) or 5 years (with a PhD) of experience in the full ML/AI lifecycle, including model development, training, testing, deployment, monitoring, and iteration on generalization.

• Proven ability to develop large-scale systems for video/image data processing in real-time, on-premise, and cloud environments.

• Hands-on experience with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.

• Strong ML/CV engineering mindset to turn prototypes and POCs into scalable and reliable processing systems.

• Strong programming skills in Python with knowledge of software development best practices.

• Solid understanding of software architecture, data structures, and scalable system design.

• Excellent communication and leadership skills to serve as a technical reference for the team.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with video processing, streaming, or encoding pipelines.

• Familiarity with edge computing and low-power ML processors.

• Technical Leadership experience in small R&D teams.

• Experience with human-in-the-loop AI systems.

• Experience building ML systems utilizing the Microsoft Azure cloud.

• Experience working with foundational models and vision-language models for visual perception.

What we offer

• A competitive compensation package, including base salary and stock options.

• The opportunity to work in a startup environment, where your contributions directly impact the company's growth and success.

• Access to cutting-edge technology, tools, and datasets to drive meaningful applied research work.
