 Lead I - ML Engineering

Job Description

Job Title: ML Engineering

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the design, development, and deployment of fruit defect detection models using object detection and image segmentation techniques.

  • Build and optimize deep learning pipelines using frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow.

  • Collaborate with domain experts to define and classify defect categories and edge cases (e.g., bruises, rot, discoloration, deformities).

  • Develop and manage data pipelines, including dataset curation, labeling workflows, and data augmentation strategies.

  • Ensure model performance and scalability across varied lighting and environmental conditions.

  • Work with product and engineering teams to deploy models into production (cloud or edge environments).

  • Research and integrate state-of-the-art computer vision models (e.g., YOLOv8, EfficientDet, Mask R-CNN, Vision Transformers, DETR).

  • Mentor and guide junior ML engineers and research interns.

  • Build evaluation dashboards and explainability tools for QA and business teams to monitor model health.

Primary Skills
  • 7+ years of experience in AI/ML, with at least 4+ years focused on Computer Vision.

  • Strong expertise in object detection, image segmentation, and classification techniques.

  • Hands-on experience with PyTorch and/or TensorFlow.

  • Deep understanding of CNNs, transfer learning, and model optimization.

  • Proficiency in Python and libraries like OpenCV and NumPy.

  • Proven ability to handle real-world noisy datasets and perform data preprocessing effectively.

  • Experience in model deployment using ONNX, TensorRT, or REST APIs.

Secondary Skills
  • Familiarity with data labeling tools (Label Studio, Roboflow, CVAT).

  • Understanding of data-centric AI and model explainability concepts.

  • Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) for ML deployment.

  • Exposure to MLOps pipelines and continuous model integration practices.

Good to Have Skills
  • Knowledge of edge AI inference (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Coral TPU).

  • Experience with unsupervised or self-supervised learning approaches.

  • Familiarity with agricultural imaging or food quality analysis.

  • Contribution to open-source computer vision projects or research publications.

  • Understanding of model interpretability tools (Grad-CAM, SHAP, LIME).
