Responsibilities

  • Design computer vision architectures for fine-grained item identification using foundation vision models adapted to the marketplace catalog.
  • Set category-specific accuracy standards and build calibrated confidence scoring to communicate prediction uncertainty.
  • Develop model-error feedback loops to prioritize future labeling with the labeling team.
  • Balance category coverage expansion against accuracy improvements in existing categories.
  • Own the transition from model development to production serving while managing latency, cost, and reliability.
  • Explain model capabilities, limitations, and technical tradeoffs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Requirements

  • At least 5 years of applied computer vision experience, including shipping a production system at meaningful scale.
  • Hands-on experience with fine-grained or instance-level classification involving visually similar items.
  • Strong fluency in PyTorch or TensorFlow and practical experience fine-tuning and deploying vision transformers or CNNs.
  • Experience designing and running vision model evaluations beyond loss metrics.
  • Experience owning model serving decisions involving latency, cost, reliability, and calibrated confidence scoring.
  • Ability to take technical ownership of open-ended problems and communicate tradeoffs clearly.
  • Experience with active learning, human-in-the-loop labeling, low-latency model APIs, or an early-stage startup is a plus.

Benefits

  • Annual base salary of $200,000 to $260,000.
  • On-site role in San Francisco, California, United States.
