ABOUT THE ROLE
The Axion Data team at Applied Intuition is building the data engine to train perception models. We build the means to run models at the edge such as Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) models, then backhaul data to our cloud pipeline that ingests and manages this data to enable the continual improvement of these models.
As a data engineer experienced in machine learning, you will be responsible for both our edge application which runs perception stacks and our cloud data engine which ingests video data to run the next iteration of the model before we deploy it back down to the edge. This includes optimizing our ability to run these models on both the edge and the cloud, as well as building MLOps tooling to gain insight and visibility into the pipeline for our stakeholders.
