  • Oversee the system design and development for testing and validating CV algorithms.

  • Run ML experiments, evaluate algorithms, and optimize performance metrics to align with business objectives.

  • Schedule and review tasks for junior engineers, providing mentorship and fostering professional growth.

  • Create and manage a roadmap for CV projects, ensuring timely delivery and alignment with company goals.

  • Take accountability for developing CV detectors, improving their performance, and integrating them into production systems.

Drive architecture decisions and ensure effective deployment of CV solutions in production environments.

Required Experience

  • Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field

  • 12+ years of experience with Computer Vision tasks such as pose detection, object detection, activity detection, segmentation, localization, and tracking.

  • Strong programming proficiency in C++ and Python, with experience in libraries like PyTorch, scikit-learn, pandas, YOLO, and OpenCV.

  • Proven ability to design, train, and implement ML and DL models for real-world applications.

  • Demonstrated skill in translating academic research into production-grade CV solutions.

  • Hands-on experience in evaluating and optimizing the performance of CV algorithms to meet business objectives.

  • Proficiency in releasing algorithms into production, with ownership of architectural decisions.

  • Experience with CV pipelines, preferably in cloud environments like AWS.

  • Strong communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

  • Familiarity with project management tools like Asana or Jira
