- Onboard customers with machine learning solutions and calibrate models for satisfactory accuracy
Requirement for the Role
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Self-motivated, critical thinking and enthusiastic in solving real-world problems
- Python experience/expertise training, evaluating, and deploying models with one of more common deep learning framework such as PyTorch or Tensorflow
- Sufficient familiarity with traditional computer vision and machine learning techniques with good mathematics foundations and geometry knowledge
- Deep insight and experience on modern computer vision and machine learning techniques (e.g., object detection, multi-object tracking)
- Familiar with popular computer vision solution related frameworks, such as opencv, gstreamer, ffmpeg, deepstream, tensorrt, etc..
- Experience with Linux environment and targeting embedded deployment
- Experience with public cloud such as GCP, Azure or AWS
- Ability to design, implement, present, and operate independently without oversight
- Good business insight and exceptional analytical skills
Nice to Have's

Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?
- Huge opportunity hiding in plain sight: leveraging already-installed cameras to automate and real-time action on operational data
- Already the market leader in enterprise CV by working with industry leaders with billions in revenue
- Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market...yet.
- Early leader in computer vision; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)
- Very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis
- Developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale
