• Build and extend backend services that power AI-driven media search and metadata enrichment
• Develop, integrate, and deploy AI/ML inference pipelines (embeddings, vision/audio models, transcription, background removal, etc.)
• Fine-tune and optimize computer vision and generative models (e.g., U²Net, BiRefNet, CLIP, Whisper, YOLO, diffusion models)
• Work with large datasets (100k–5M images): preprocessing, augmenting, and structuring for training/inference
• Contribute to building pipelines for tasks like background removal, inpainting/outpainting, banner generation, logo/face detection, and multimodal embeddings
• Integrate with vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant) for similarity and semantic search
• Collaborate with the engineering team to deploy scalable AI inference endpoints (Docker + GPU/EC2/SageMaker)
