Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of computer vision systems for biometric face attributes, detection, quality assessment, and recognition.
- Conduct fairness analysis and benchmarking of biometric models across datasets and operating conditions.
- Architect, train, and optimize models using PyTorch, TensorFlow, and/or JAX.
- Own end-to-end ML pipelines from data ingestion through training and deployment, including Airflow-based ingestion and cleaning workflows.
- Curate balanced training datasets and generate synthetic data to address quality and diversity gaps.
- Optimize models for low-latency inference using quantization, distillation, TensorRT, and ONNX.
- Deploy and scale ML services and training jobs on AWS and multi-GPU clusters.
- Mentor ML engineers, conduct code and design reviews, and drive technical best practices across the Computer Vision team.
Requirements
- 5+ years of industry experience in machine learning, including at least 3 years dedicated to biometrics or face analysis.
- Deep expertise in computer vision, biometrics, and especially face recognition.
- Practical experience measuring and mitigating algorithmic bias and disparate impact in computer vision.
- Expert proficiency in Python and machine learning and vision libraries such as Pillow, OpenCV, and PyTorch.
- Experience designing end-to-end ML pipelines and using workflow orchestrators such as Airflow.
