Experience with supervised, unsupervised, reinforcement learning; knowledge of 3D ML/DL is a plus.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and collaborative skills.
Good understanding of data structures, software architecture, and data modeling.
Experience with tabular data, computer vision, imagery, point clouds, and game datasets.
Proficiency with ML libraries like NumPy, OpenCV, scikit-learn, PyTorch/PyTorch3D, TensorFlow, Keras; familiarity with CI/CD, version control (GitLab, Perforce), and cloud platforms (preferably AWS).
Benefits include:
22 days holidays + Christmas closure & Bank holidays (increasing with service)
