Full Job Description
Edge ML Application Developer- Bellevue, WA or Santa Clara, CA
This engagement focuses on building the critical integration layer between the client's on-vehicle machine learning models and real-time, driver-facing features on an edge-compute platform. The internal science team owns core model development; our role is to partner with them to deploy, optimize, and productionize those models on-device; translating research-grade models into reliable, real-time application logic. This includes preparing and synchronizing sensor inputs, tuning models for on-device performance constraints, and architecting the logic that arbitrates and combines outputs from multiple concurrent models into a single, dependable feature decision the driver can trust.

What You'll Bring

  • Strong Python experience with hands-on deployment and optimization of machine learning models on edge or embedded devices.
  • Experience with edge inference frameworks such as TensorRT, ONNX Runtime, TensorFlow Lite, or comparable technologies.
  • Experience deploying production computer vision, perception, or deep-learning models in real-time or near-real-time environments.
  • Prior experience within automotive, ADAS, autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, or another sensor-driven autonomous system.
  • Experience working with camera, LiDAR, radar, IMU, or other sensor-based perception inputs.
  • Experience integrating outputs from multiple models or perception components into unified application or decision logic.
  • Strong understanding of latency, memory, throughput, and compute constraints in edge environments.
  • Experience with preprocessing, post-processing, confidence thresholds, filtering, tracking, fusion, or output arbitration.
  • Ability to work North American business hours with strong written and verbal communication skills.

Bonus Experience
  • Experience with NVIDIA Jetson, Orin, DRIVE, CUDA, or DeepStream.
  • Experience with model quantization and optimization techniques such as INT8, FP16, pruning, distillation, or layer fusion.
  • Experience with ADAS, collision avoidance, driver monitoring, or other safety-critical vehicle systems.
  • Experience with sensor fusion, multi-camera perception, LiDAR processing, trajectory estimation, or 3D perception.
  • Strong C++ experience for performance-sensitive inference or perception applications.

What You'll Do
  • Port, compile, and deploy ML models to resource-constrained edge-compute platforms.
  • Optimize model inference for latency, memory, throughput, and hardware constraints.
  • Build preprocessing pipelines for camera, telematics, and other sensor inputs.
  • Develop post-processing and application logic that combines outputs from multiple concurrent models into unified real-time decisions.
  • Implement confidence filtering, prioritization, and arbitration logic across competing model outputs and driver notifications.
  • Integrate perception outputs into real-time vehicle features such as alerts, visual indicators, or audible warnings.
  • Collaborate with perception, platform, embedded, and OS engineering teams to ensure sensor-data, timing, and runtime compatibility.
  • Execute against an established system architecture while iterating quickly as requirements and implementation details evolve.
