Computer Vision Engineer - Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence

Job Description

We are seeking a talented Computer Vision Engineer with strong expertise in microservice deployment architecture to join our team.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing and deploying computer vision models to analyze retail surveillance footage for use cases such as theft detection, employee efficiency monitoring, and store traffic analysis.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement scalable, cloud-based microservices to deliver real-time and post-event analytics to improve retail responsibilities.
• Develop computer vision models: Build, train, and optimize deep learning models to analyze surveillance footage for detecting theft, monitoring employee productivity, tracking store busy hours, and other relevant use cases.
• Design and deploy scalable microservice-based solutions that allow seamless integration of computer vision models into cloud or on-premise environments.
• Develop data pipelines to process real-time and batch video data streams, ensuring efficient extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) of video data.
• Collaborate with backend and frontend engineers to integrate computer vision services with existing retail systems such as POS, inventory management, and employee scheduling.
• Fine-tune models for high accuracy and real-time inference on edge devices or cloud infrastructure, optimizing for latency, power consumption, and resource constraints.
• Continuously monitor model performance in production environments, identify potential issues, and implement improvements to accuracy and efficiency.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards for security and data privacy, particularly regarding the handling of video footage and sensitive data.

Skills & Requirements

• 5+ years of proven experience in computer vision, including object detection, action recognition, and multi-object tracking, preferably in retail or surveillance applications.
• Hands-on experience with microservices deployment on cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) using Docker, Kubernetes, or similar technologies.
• Experience with real-time video analytics, including working with large-scale video data and camera skills.
• Proficiency in programming languages like Python, C++, or Java.
• Expertise in deep learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras) for developing computer vision models.
• Strong understanding of microservice architecture, REST APIs, and serverless computing.
• Knowledge of database systems (SQL, NoSQL), message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ), and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with edge computing and hardware acceleration (e.g., GPUs, TPUs) for running inference on embedded devices.

Qualifications

• Experience with deploying models to edge devices (NVIDIA Jetson, Coral, etc.).
• Understanding of retail operations and common challenges in surveillance.
• Knowledge of data privacy regulations such as GDPR.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work independently and in cross-functional teams.
• Excellent communication skills to convey technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

What We Offer

• A chance to shape the future of a high-impact AI startup.
• Collaborative and innovation-driven culture.
• Competitive compensation and growth opportunities.
• Office located in the heart of Madhapur, Hyderabad.
