Machine Learning Engineer (Mid-Level)

About the Company:

Aerobotics7 (A7) is a mission-driven deep-tech startup focused on developing an autonomous next-gen sensing and advanced AI platform to detect and identify hidden threats like landmines and UXOs, in real-time. Our driven team is committed to building mission-critical products through continuous learning, rapid execution and close cross-collaboration. We are intentionally a small, strong, and highly technical team to deliver impactful products that can solve some of the biggest problems in the world.

What you’ll do:

• Lead ML model lifecycle, from research and experiments to implementation and deployment.

• Build and deploy deep learning models on GCP and edge devices, ensuring real-time inference.

• Combine multiple sensor inputs into powerful multi-modal ML models.

• Implement and refine CNNs, Vision Transformers(ViT), and other architectures.

• Design sensor-fusion methods for better perception and decision-making.

• Optimize inference for low-latency, efficient production use.

• Work closely with software and hardware teams to bring AI into mission-critical systems.

• Create and scale pipelines for training, validating, and improving models.

• Ensure your models are robust, interpretable, and secure.

What you’ll bring:

• Deep expertise in TensorFlow and PyTorch.

• Hands-on experience with CNNs, ViTs, and DL architectures.

• Experience with multi-modal ML and sensor fusion.

• Cloud deployment skills- GCP preferred.

• Edge AI know-how (NVIDIA Jetson, TensorRT, OpenVINO).

• Proficiency in quantization, pruning, and real-time model optimization.

• Solid computer vision and object detection experience.

• Ability to work with limited datasets (using VAEs or similar) to generate synthetic data, and experience with annotation and augmentation.

• Strong coding skills in Python and C++, with high-performance computing expertise.

  
  

Nice to have:

• 2-4 years of relevant experience.

• MLOps experience- CI/CD, model versioning, monitoring.

• Knowledge of reinforcement learning.

• Experience in working in fast-paced startup environments.

• Experience in AI for autonomy, robotics, or UAV systems.

• Knowledge of embedded systems and hardware acceleration for AI.
