Responsibilities

• ML Methods for Data: Design, develop, and validate ML methods for data selection, enrichment, annotation, and quality assessment.
• End-to-End Ownership: Own the full lifecycle, from problem formulation through deployment and continuous improvement.
• Large-Scale Application: Build reliable workflows for processing large-scale real-world datasets and scalable pipelines for generating synthetic data.
• Evaluation & Experimentation: Measure data quality and assess its impact on model performance.
• Iterative Improvement: Use failure analysis and feedback to improve data-processing methods.
• Annotation: Produce and evaluate labels such as captions, camera poses, depth maps, and segmentation masks.
• Research Collaboration: Partner with researchers and engineers to develop effective data solutions.

Requirements

• Master's or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Demonstrated ability to develop original ML methods, evidenced by peer-reviewed publications or substantial research contributions with rigorous experimental validation.
• Experience owning the full lifecycle of an ML method: designing and implementing the approach, applying it to large-scale data, evaluating results, and improving it through successive iterations.
• Strong Python and PyTorch skills, with experience training, adapting, and evaluating machine learning models.
• Ability to design controlled experiments, establish meaningful metrics, and analyze errors to guide improvements.
• Strong software engineering skills, with an emphasis on reproducibility, reliability, and maintainable code.

Nice to Have

• Publications in computer vision, robotics, or related machine learning fields, with a substantial personal contribution.
• Experience scaling ML inference and data processing with distributed computing tools.
• Experience optimizing large-scale inference or data-processing workflows.
• Experience building and operating distributed data pipelines over hundreds of terabytes, with a strong focus on idempotency, backfills, and schema evolution.
