Job description

Computer vision is our heartbeat. You will own the detection, tracking, and analysis of branded assets across global broadcasts.

  • Core Platform: Advanced proficiency in Databricks (PySpark, Delta Lake, MLflow).
  • Frameworks: PyTorch, OpenCV, NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn.
  • Infrastructure: AWS (EC2, S3, CLI) and Linux-based production environments.

Your Mission: From Experiment to Production

This is an execution-focused role for a leader who has moved beyond academic experimentation and wants to see their models live in a global SaaS product.

Applied ML & Vision Pipeline

  • Architect & Deploy: Design models for object detection and tracking that survive real-world broadcast artifacts (lighting changes, camera motion, occlusions).
  • End-to-End Ownership: From raw data preparation and feature generation to deployment and performance monitoring.
  • Continuous Innovation: Evolve VLM models for OCR, text extraction, and adjacent NLP/Speech-to-text pipelines.

Platform Excellence (Databricks)

  • Build and maintain scalable datasets across Bronze, Silver, and Gold layers in Delta Lake.
  • Ensure all pipelines are reproducible, efficient, and production-ready in a shared cloud environment.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Object detection?, * The Experience: 3+ years of hands-on experience in applied Computer Vision (Object Detection/Tracking is a must).

  • The Skills: Strong Python (OOP), experience with large-scale datasets, and exposure to OCR/NLP systems.
  • The Mindset: You thrive in scrappy, fast-moving environments and value the autonomy of an individual contributor with the influence of an engineering lead., * Computer Vision: 5 years (Required)

Benefits & conditions

SportsBiz is in a high-velocity growth phase. We have successfully raised $2M in our seed round and are currently closing a $5M Series A.

  • The Current Phase: As we close our current round, all team members are compensated through Equity + Performance-based Stipends.
  • The Horizon (Anticipated Q2/Q3): Upon round closure, this role transitions to a Full Salary + Expanded Equity + Comprehensive Benefits.
  • Clients: We are ramping up for a growth phase in Revenue generation as numerous new Blue Chip clients were signed in the month of May.
