Full-Time Machine Learning Engineer
Job Description
OVERVIEW
We are seeking a talented engineer to join our Research & Development team as a Machine Learning Engineer with a focus on Computer Vision. We are working on ambitious projects to augment our lab personnel with machine vision platforms to speed up our scientific work, as well as build imaging systems for a variety of contexts – both indoor and outdoor. The Machine Learning Engineer will work closely with our Robotics and Software Engineers to help process images to develop machine learning models that accelerate our scientific experimentation.
YOUR MISSION
To support our work in computer vision, including object detection and segmentation using deep learning to facilitate our advanced bioscience research.
ACCOUNTABILITIES
- Research and help develop machine learning/deep learning models for object detection and semantic segmentation in 2D and 3D images
- Support implementation of image processing pipelines to process 2D and 3D images captured by imaging platforms
- Research and help implement algorithms to solve various computer vision related problems such as 3D reconstruction and motion analysis
- Collaborate with and receive guidance from our Software and Machine Learning Engineers to put your models and algorithms into production
REQUIREMENTS
- M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Engineering/Computer Science, or an equivalent combination of experience and knowledge
- 2+ years’ experience in applying machine learning and deep learning concepts to real-world problems
- Familiarity with deep learning network architectures (e.g. convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, single shot detectors) and frameworks (e.g. Tensorflow, PyTorch, Caffe)
- Solid programming skills with a focus on writing clean/maintainable code with experience in Python (preferred), Java, or C++ programming
- Strong analytical ability and mathematical skills
- Matured communication and critical thinking ability to influence and propose analytics strategies that challenge status quo thinking
PREFERENCES
- Portfolio of completed machine learning projects available for review
- Experience with parallel and distributed training of deep learning models
- Experience applying computer vision techniques to high-resolution images
- Exposure to imaging system components (sensors, optics, lighting)
- Knowledge of the Agile project management methodology
- Knowledge of theories and state of the art practices in computer vision with experience in computer vision and in using related libraries (e.g. OpenCV)
QUALITIES WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- Aptitude for interdisciplinary collaboration
- Highly conscientious with strong follow-through
- Capable of performing research on best practices and communicating results to a non-expert audience
- Able to apply domain knowledge to ambiguous and novel situations
LOCATION
- This position is remote based in Vancouver, BC.
