Job Summary Multimodal Analysis Framework (MAF)

• is an end‑to‑end platform designed to process diverse content sources—including
• video, images, audio, and documents
• —to generate rich, structured metadata. The platform unifies multiple ML/AI models to extract curated insights at scale, tailored to specific business needs. MAF supports both
• on‑demand
• workloads (batch uploads, ad‑hoc analysis) and
• real‑time streaming
• workflows, enabling continuous metadata generation for live content streams.

Customers can define their metadata requirements—such as entity extraction, scene segmentation, object detection, transcription, summarization, or multimodal correlation—and the framework orchestrates the appropriate models and toolchains to deliver high‑quality outputs. Through flexible APIs and UI‑based workflows, customers and internal teams can visualize metadata, trigger enrichment, monitor processing, and integrate results into downstream applications. The platform emphasizes modularity, scalability, and extensibility to support new ML models, LLM‑based agents, and cross‑modal inference as use cases evolve. We are looking for a
