Founding ML Engineer, Computer Vision (Object Detection)

ABOUT THE ROLE As the founding machine learning engineer, you will set the technical direction for computer vision in an early-stage resale marketplace. You will build and productionize models that identify items from images with the accuracy and confidence needed to support trustworthy pricing and customer decisions. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Design computer vision architecture for fine-grained item identification, building on foundation models and adapting them to a specific catalog. - Define accuracy standards by category and develop calibrated confidence scores so the product can recognize when it is uncertain. - Build feedback loops that use model errors to guide future labeling and model improvement. - Set priorities between expanding category coverage and improving accuracy in existing categories. - Own the path from research to production, including model serving latency, cost, and reliability. - Communicate model capabilities and limitations to technical and non-technical stakeholders. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - At least 5 years of applied computer vision experience, including a system shipped to production at meaningful scale. - Experience with fine-grained or instance-level classif...
