About the role

  • Senior Software Engineer developing robust systems for perception and understanding in Computer Vision and Multimodal AI. Collaborating with teams to enhance product areas and build reliable workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and improve multi-stage computer vision pipelines that may include segmentation, detection, tracking, and VLM-based analysis, producing structured outputs (entities, attributes, actions/events, confidence, provenance)
  • Build systems that handle real-world variability in visual inputs (for example: low resolution, poor lighting, motion blur, cluttered scenes, inconsistent capture devices)
  • Work with diverse media types such as photos, video, timelapse, 360 video, and RGB-D when available
  • Fuse visual evidence with contextual inputs such as metadata, documents, and sensor streams to improve recognition quality and reduce ambiguity
  • Evaluate and integrate state-of-the-art vision and vision-language foundation models, including open-vocabulary recognition, grounded perception, segmentation, and multimodal reasoning
  • Apply fine-tuning or adaptation approaches when needed; partner with ML teams on training, data strategy, and infrastructure best practices
  • Define measurable acceptance criteria and benchmarking for accuracy, robustness, latency/cost, and reliability across datasets and domains
  • Build scalable cloud workflows for batch processing and integrate outputs with APIs and downstream consumers
  • Improve operational performance and cost via batching, caching, model selection, and pipeline observability
  • Write maintainable code, contribute to design docs, code reviews, shared libraries, and cross-team technical decisions

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)
  • 4+ years of experience building computer vision systems using Python
  • Strong experience with deep learning for computer vision (detection, segmentation, and/or video understanding) using modern frameworks such as PyTorch
  • Experience taking ML prototypes into reliable pipelines, including evaluation, monitoring, and failure analysis
  • Experience building or integrating ML systems into cloud or backend workflows (batch processing and/or services)
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills; ability to work across teams and stakeholders.

Benefits

  • Annual cash bonuses
  • Comprehensive benefits package
