About the Role

You will adapt and develop multimodal perception algorithms for construction and mining operations. You will train models, build auto-annotation tools, define evaluations, drive active learning and data selection, and integrate perception systems with MLOps for continuous deployment.

Requirements

  • Master's degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field
  • 3+ years in applied machine learning with large-scale datasets
  • Python and PyTorch proficiency
  • Experience shipping perception or machine-learning systems into production
  • Systems-level understanding of data, models, and infrastructure
  • Auto-annotation techniques using VLM-based labeling
  • Model evaluation across failure modes and edge cases
  • Perception experience with detection, segmentation, depth, or tracking
  • Multimodal data experience with camera, LiDAR, and radar

Responsibilities

  • Adapt and extend perception algorithms for the operational domain
  • Develop novel multimodal perception algorithms
  • Train models as the operational domain evolves
  • Develop auto-annotation and auto-labeling tools using VLMs
  • Define evaluation protocols correlated with on-ground performance
  • Drive active learning and data selection
  • Integrate perception systems with MLOps for continuous deployment
