Senior Edge ML Engineer - CPU-Only Video Analytics (C++)

ReqRoute,Inc; Irving (TX); On-site; USD 120,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

ReqRoute,Inc. is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to port and optimize a containerized video analytics pipeline for CPU-only router hardware.

You will own the full stack—from model optimization to on-device inference performance—and integrate with Cradlepoint OS and PrplOS environments. The role emphasizes deploying quantization/pruning, managing memory to under 100MB, and achieving favorable accuracy-latency balances on ARM/MIPS platforms.

Qualifications

• 4+ years in embedded systems or edge ML deployment.
• Experience with containerization (Docker, LXC) on constrained devices.
• ML model optimization: quantization, pruning, ONNX, TensorFlow Lite, OpenVINO.
• Video analytics / computer vision (YOLO variants, object detection pipelines).

Responsibilities

• Port GPU-based video analytics models to CPU-only router targets.
• Optimize inference pipeline to stay under 100MB memory footprint using SLMs.
• Build containerized architecture with dynamic cloud-driven model loading.
• Tune accuracy/performance tradeoffs on ARM/MIPS router hardware.
• Integrate with Cradlepoint OS and PrplOS environments.
• Benchmark and iterate on detection accuracy vs. latency on constrained hardware.
