Senior ML Engineer - Real-Time Vision & Perception (Zurich)

Acuity Brands, Inc.; Zürich; Hybrid; CHF 140.000 - 180.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Acuity Brands, Inc. in Zurich, Switzerland is seeking a Senior ML Engineer to evaluate, integrate, and optimize state-of-the-art machine learning models powering the perception and awareness engine behind Q-SYS VisionSuite in smart meeting spaces.

You will collaborate with ML, Robotics, and Software engineers to deploy robust, real-time solutions under hardware constraints, with a strong emphasis on engineering execution and maintainable design.

Qualifikationen

• MSc or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, Robotics, or related technical field.
• 5+ years hands-on experience in machine learning engineering or applied ML roles.
• Proven experience integrating ML models into production systems.
• Strong proficiency in Python and modern ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX).
• Solid software engineering fundamentals including modular design, code reviews, testing strategies, and CI/CD.
• Experience optimizing models for real-time or resource-constrained environments.
• Understanding of system-level trade-offs in latency-sensitive or distributed architectures.

Aufgaben

• Evaluate and benchmark state-of-the-art ML models and algorithms for perception, tracking, and multimodal awareness.
• Design and maintain reproducible evaluation pipelines measuring model performance, latency, memory footprint, and robustness.
• Integrate ML models into production systems in collaboration with Robotics and Platform teams.
• Optimize inference pipelines for real-time performance on constrained hardware (CPU/GPU/edge devices, Q-SYS Cores).
• Improve model efficiency using quantization, pruning, distillation, and runtime optimization techniques.
• Write production-grade Python (and C++ where appropriate) following clean architecture and modular design principles.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, regression validation, and performance monitoring for ML components.
• Ensure reproducibility, versioning, and traceability of models, datasets, and experiments.
• Work with Product and System Architects to align ML solutions with hardware and product roadmap constraints.
