About
As your scope matures, you will extend into the modelling layer that connects vision-derived features to downstream process variables, laying the foundation.
You will work directly with the CTO and have full visibility into technical and commercial decisions from day one.
We prioritize willingness and ability to up-skill quickly over existing skills and motivation to make a difference and deploy fast are key.
*Responsibilities*
* Own the computer vision architecture: evaluate the existing baseline, make architectural decisions, and take full accountability for model performance in production
* Build and maintain cloud inference serving live testing sites across Europe
* Design and maintain pipelines that ingest and process live sensor data from industrial installations
* Build the correlation layer between vision derived features and downstream process variables
* Structure model outputs as clean, documented inputs for the operator-facing interface
* Collaborate with the founding team to integrate operational observations with model behavior
*Qualifications*
* 3+ years in applied ML (not necessarily professional), with at least one deployment of a computer vision system
* Fluent in German and English
* A clear opinion about segmentation architectures and the ability to defend it
* Experience extracting performance from small datasets: augmentation, transfer learning, semi-supervised approaches
* Solid time series modelling skills: feature engineering from sensor data, handling irregular sampling, autocorrelation and non-stationarity
* Sufficient software engineering fundamentals to own cloud infrastructure and data pipelines without dedicated support
*Bonus Qualifications*
* Background in live cell imaging, medical imaging, industrial sensing, or water industry
* Experience with process optimisation or control systems
* Familiarity with MLOps practices
* Demonstrated work recognised in your field
*What We Offer*
* Flexibility: Hybrid working model with a focus on output, not hours.
* Professional Growth: Direct access to founders and the opportunity to grow into a leadership role as we scale the team and access to upskilling resources.
* Tools for Success: A dedicated budget for the hardware and compute you need to do your best work.
* Health: We want you to be the best version of yourself and will try to support this as best as we can. Let us know what perks and benefits you would like to see.
