Job summary

Red Sky Poland is seeking a Lead Machine Learning Engineer (Robotics & Computer Vision) to join the founding technical team of a startup building a cutting-edge automation platform. Working closely with the CTO & Co-founder, you will own the product's ML core and shape its technical direction as the company scales.

This is a highly hands-on role, not a corporate, LLM-wrapper, or prompt-engineering position.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of end-to-end Deep Learning experience: From data processing and architecture design to training models from scratch and deep fine‑tuning (no API prompting).
• Advanced framework proficiency: Deep understanding of modern DL tools (PyTorch preferred), including writing custom data loaders and loss functions.
• Computer Vision expertise: Hands‑on background with CNNs, ViTs, object detection, and segmentation.
• Solid software engineering foundation: Proven track record of building and shipping ML components in real, production‑ready products.
• Startup mindset: Pragmatic, analytical, and comfortable in fast‑paced, high‑uncertainty environments where rapid execution beats over‑engineered code.
• Language skills: Fluent Polish and English (spoken and written).

Responsibilities

• Owning the AI/ML core of the product, working closely with the CTO & Co‑founder to align it with the overall technical strategy,
• Writing custom training loops, designing and implementing neural network architectures (e.g., in PyTorch), and managing the end-to-end lifecycle from raw data processing to edge deployment,
• Building the AI/ML components of the MVP (managing the end-to-end AI/ML model lifecycle, from architecture design to training and fine‑tuning and - where relevant - hardware control interfaces),
• Proposing and helping define the AI/ML stack and model architecture,
• Monitoring AI, computer vision, and robotics trends to maintain a competitive technological edge,
• Working closely with the CTO and, as the team grows, mentoring engineers joining the AI/ML function,
• Translating customer feedback and market needs into robust AI/ML technical requirements,
• Contributing to an internal culture focused on code quality, ownership, rapid iteration, and high execution standards.
