Develop within the full machine learning lifecycle; from problem definition to data pipeline design, model development, validation, deployment, and monitoring. Establish and refine best practices in our ML system architecture, CI/CD pipelines for ML, and reproducible research methodologies. Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders including product managers, data engineers, and MLOps teams to ensure seamless model integration and delivery. Apply computer vision and signal processing techniques — including object detection, semantic segmentation, and activity recognition — to large-scale sensory datasets (image, audio, radar, accelerometer) to derive insights and guide modeling strategies Mentor and guide junior engineers and contribute to the hiring process and technical reviews.
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field. 5+ years of professional experience developing and implementing ML for perception systems with expertise in at least one of either radar, audio, camera, or LiDAR. Strong foundations in computer vision, including object detection, tracking, and semantic segmentation applied to real-world sensor data. Expertise in Python with extensive experience in at least one deep learning framework (PyTorch or TensorFlow). Proven ability to develop production-grade ML applications for training, evaluation and inference on large-scale datasets. Experience creating C/C++ applications utilizing modern language features and build systems, preferably for porting ML inference applications from Python to edge devices/embedded systems. White-box understanding of classical ML algorithms (SVMs, HMMs, Decision Trees) and modern neural network models and architectures (CNNs, transformers) with significant experience applying them for perception systems. Experience implementing and applying dynamic object tracking, with experience using sensor fusion as a preference. Proficiency in Unix-based environments (Linux, macOS) including working with remote servers and services, virtual computers and clusters. Proficiency in signal processing techniques such as time/frequency-domain processing (e.g. Fourier Transform), filtering, and noise reduction. All candidates must reside in either EST or CST time zones and be authorized to work in the US without sponsorship, now or in the future.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience in deploying models to edge hardware, including experience with PyTorch and ONNX and model compression techniques, e.g. quantization and pruning.
