Lead the development and deployment of production-grade machine learning systems, shaping architecture and engineering standards while advising clients and mentoring engineers.
Sr. ML Ops Engineer
๐ Description
- Build and maintain data pipelines that consolidate internal infrastructure, labeling tools, S3, and other sources into a unified, queryable system.
- Develop tools to select and curate datasets by environment, object type, and other criteria.
- Own ML data infrastructure from robot data collection through training runs, making it accessible to the ML team without backend engineering support.
- Build model evaluation and regression-testing infrastructure with measurable metrics.
- Automate routine model retuning workflows.
๐ ๏ธ Requirements
- 2-3 years shipping real production ML infrastructure for big datasets, not just scripts
- Experience building distributed data pipelines that consolidate multiple sources
- Demonstrated understanding of data flow from raw collection, labeled training set, to trained models
- Experience building systems from scratch, or contributed heavily to a small-team infra build where the playbook didn't exist
- Ability to thrive in a startup environment with high ambiguity. You'll figure out what to build
- Experience setting up annotation tooling and workflows
- Background in robotics autonomy and computer vision
Full job description
About Corvus
Every physical good spends time in a warehouse, and every warehouse tracks their inventory. Today, nearly 100% of warehouses track their inventory manually using barcode scanners and climbing forklifts.
We're Corvus Robotics. Our fully autonomous Corvus Oneโข drones use computer vision & robotics to automatically track inventory, improving worker safety and increasing labor efficiency. We believe that data-driven, safe inventory management will optimize the global physical economy and improve economic prosperity for humanity.
About the Role
With a growing fleet of autonomous drones and an expanding customer base, we're now ready to multiply ML iteration speed and unblock more advanced ML product delivery.
We're hiring a systems-oriented Senior Software Engineer to build the data infrastructure, training pipelines, and internal tooling that our ML team needs to move faster.
Specifically in this role you will:
Build and maintain the data pipeline infrastructure that consolidates internal infra, labeling tools, S3, and other data sources into a unified, queryable system
Build tooling for dataset selection and curation that can programmatically target specific data (by environment, object type, etc.)
Own ML data infra from robot to training run, accessible to the ML team without backend engineering help
Build model evaluation and regression testing infrastructure -- real metrics, not vibes or "someone complained in prod"
Automate the model retuning loop for standard tasks so ML engineers can be mostly hands-off on routine updates
This is a hybrid or remote role with periodic trips to HQ in Mountain View, CA.
