Job Description/Preferred Qualifications
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Algorithm Developer to join the AOI (Automatic Optical Inspection) team, working on the EcoNet product.
In this role, you will develop and deploy deep learning–based algorithms that operate as part of a complex, multi‑disciplinary inspection system, combining algorithms, software, system architecture, data, and field constraints.
Beyond strong algorithmic expertise, this position requires broad technical understanding and the ability to work across disciplines to turn advanced AI research into reliable, scalable, customer‑facing solutions.
For the right candidate, this role may also include technical leadership and team ownership.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and optimize deep learning algorithms for AOI image analysis and inspection use cases
- Conduct applied research, translating state‑of‑the‑art DL methods into robust production solutions
- Take end‑to‑end ownership of algorithms: data analysis, model design, training, evaluation, optimization, and deployment
- Work with large-scale, real‑world data and continuously improve performance, robustness, and scalability
- Collaborate closely with software engineers, system architects, product, applications, and field teams
- Understand and account for system‑level constraints such as throughput, latency, deployment environment, and hardware
- Analyze failures, define KPIs, and drive continuous improvement based on production and field data
- (Optional / Growth Path) Provide technical leadership, mentor team members, and help shape the EcoNet algorithm roadmap
Required Qualifications
- M.Sc. or higher in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related field
- At least 4 years of hands‑on experience in deep learning algorithm development
- Strong background in deep learning theory and practice (e.g., CNNs, transformers, representation learning, optimization)
- Extensive Python experience, including modern DL frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
- Proven ability to work on complex, multi‑disciplinary systems, beyond standalone research environments
- Strong analytical skills and experience working with large, noisy, real‑world datasets
- Ability to translate research ideas into production‑quality, maintainable code
What We Offer
- Work on advanced AI technology that directly impacts customer inspection systems
- A role that combines deep algorithmic challenges with real system and product influence
- Strong cross‑disciplinary collaboration within the AOI organization
- High ownership, autonomy, and a clear path toward technical leadership
- A dynamic environment dealing with real‑world constraints, scale, and complexity
Minimum Qualifications
- Experience developing production-grade DL systems end‑to‑end
- Experience with C++, especially for performance‑critical components
- Background in computer vision, image processing, or signal processing
- Experience working with distributed systems, inference services, or large‑scale deployment pipelines
- Demonstrated ability to lead technically, mentor others, or grow into a team lead role
- Exposure to industrial systems, high‑throughput pipelines, or customer‑facing products
We offer a competitive, family friendly total rewards package. We design our programs to reflect our commitment to an inclusive environment, while ensuring we provide benefits that meet the diverse needs of our employees.
