platforms
- Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration (AWS ECS, Kubernetes) for
ML workloads
- Deep knowledge of AWS services relevant to ML and computer vision, such as
SageMaker, EC2, S3, and Lambda
- Proven experience with data annotation for computer vision tasks, including use of
open-source tools or commercial solutions in a professional environment
- Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and collaborative development
workflows
- Strong communication skills and ability to explain complex technical concepts to
non-technical stakeholders
Preferred Qualifications:
- Advanced degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related
field
- Contributions to open-source projects or research publications in computer vision or
MLOps
- Publications in peer-reviewed journals or conferences in the fields of computer vision,
machine learning, or related areas
- Experience with additional ML frameworks such as TensorFlow or JAX
- Familiarity with ONNX for model interoperability and optimization
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (preferably Terraform)
