Senior Staff Deep Learning Engineer (R5675)

The role

You will research, design and build state-of-the-art perception systems, taking ideas from concept to field solutions. You will deploy the AI stack to edge devices and work with other deep learning engineers on tools to scale deep learning operations.

What you will do

• Research, design and implement state-of-the-art perception capabilities from concept to field solutions
• Work with and deploy the AI stack to edge devices
• Work with other deep learning engineers to architect and develop tools that scale deep learning operations
• Stay current with the literature and take part in R&D projects

Required qualifications

• 3 to 5 years of industry experience delivering deep-learning-based computer vision solutions
• Strong understanding of convolutional neural networks and/or transformers for classification, recognition or segmentation
• Experience working with recent Foundation Models
• Experience implementing novel deep learning architectures in frameworks such as TensorFlow, Caffe or PyTorch, or similar
• Relevant tertiary qualification (Bachelor's, Master's or PhD in Computer Science or a related field)

Nice to have

• Publications at leading computer vision, AI or machine learning conferences or journals (such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, PAMI, JMLR)
• C++ and/or Python development experience
• In-depth understanding of the latest deep learning architectures for computer vision and image processing
• Experience with object detection and target tracking, SLAM, 3D reconstruction, camera calibration, behaviour analysis, foundation models, vision language models, large multi-modal models, automated vi
• Experience deploying deep learning models in embedded production, including pruning, quantization and performance tuning
• Experience maintaining or setting up MLOps systems and services
• Experience mentoring junior engineers or researchers

Before you apply

• All offers are contingent on a cleared background and possible reference check
