Résumé du poste

Sieve, Inc. in San Francisco is seeking a Perception-focused Machine Learning Engineer to build the data pipelines turning raw egocentric, robot, and sensor footage into labeled training data for robotics and world-model teams.

You will ship end-to-end perception systems, apply SLAM and 3D vision techniques, and collaborate with frontier labs to scale datasets across modalities. This role is onsite at our SF HQ.

Qualifications

• 3+ years building production perception or computer vision systems for robotics, AR/VR devices, autonomous vehicles, or similar
• Hands-on experience with SLAM, visual-inertial odometry, multi-view geometry, or 3D reconstruction
• Strong Python skills and fluency with PyTorch; C++ is a plus
• Comfortable with multi-sensor data such as camera intrinsics and extrinsics, IMU, depth, and time synchronization
• Experience training, fine-tuning, or deploying modern deep learning models for vision
• Sharp intuition for evaluation, edge cases, and what makes data actually useful for training
• Comfortable owning a problem from the customer conversation to a deployed pipeline
• Excited about Physical AI and the data that will power it
• In person at our SF HQ

Responsabilités

• Build perception pipelines for depth, pose, tracking, segmentation, and 3D reconstruction over large video and multi-sensor datasets
• Apply SLAM, visual odometry, and structure-from-motion to recover camera trajectories and scene geometry at scale
• Fine-tune vision and vision-language models for embodied tasks like hand-object interaction, activity understanding, and scene understanding
• Develop automated QA and filtering systems that catch calibration errors, sync drift, motion blur, and other data defects before they reach customers
• Create benchmarks and evaluation frameworks that measure how much a dataset improves downstream robotics and world-model performance
• Work directly with frontier labs and robotics teams to turn vague data requirements into production pipelines
• Ship fast, measure results, and iterate based on how the data performs in the real world

About Us

Sieve is a multi-modal lab curating the world's highest-quality training datasets, spanning video, audio, images, text, and 3D. We combine exabyte-scale data infrastructure and novel multimodal understanding techniques that push the frontier of foundation models. Video alone makes up 80% of internet traffic, and across modalities, data has become the enabling medium powering creativity, communication, gaming, AR/VR, and robotics. Sieve exists to solve the biggest bottleneck in the growth of these applications: high-quality training data.

We partner with top AI labs and did $XXM last quarter alone, as a team of ~30 people. We also raised our Series A from Tier 1 firms such as Matrix Partners, Swift Ventures, Y Combinator, and AI Grant.

Why Now

Sieve is one of the most capital-efficient teams in AI, with roughly 30 people serving the world's leading AI labs across every major data modality. You'll join early, own problems end-to-end, and watch your work ship directly into the models defining the frontier.

About the Role

Physical AI runs on data that captures how the real world looks, moves, and fits together in 3D. As a perception-focused Machine Learning Engineer at Sieve, you'll build the systems that turn raw egocentric, robot, and sensor footage into the training data that robotics and world-model teams depend on.

You'll bring the computer vision instincts of someone who has shipped perception for robots, devices, or autonomous vehicles, and apply them to datasets at a scale few teams ever touch. One week you might recover camera pose and scene geometry across thousands of hours of first-person video. The next, you might build a hand and object tracking pipeline, or design a benchmark that tells a lab whether their data actually improves manipulation policies.
