Senior candidates: deeper ownership of training/data infrastructure at scale., * Synthetic data generation and simulation (e.g. Unreal/Isaac, domain randomization) and demonstrated sim-to-real transfer. * EO/IR imagery experience and working with real flight/test data in challenging, degraded, or contested environments. * Multi-modal perception and fusion (EO/IR + radar/LiDAR/RF) at the feature or decision level. * Detection/tracking/search at scale; active learning and data-mining strategies for long-tail coverage. * CUDA backends for performance debugging; ROS 2; NVIDIA Jetson deployment pipelines. * Drift/dataset-shift monitoring, robustness and rare-event testing, long-horizon reliability metrics. * Distributed training frameworks and cloud ML platforms (e.g. SageMaker); Docker for reproducibility; Rust for systems tooling. ## Description Mach Industries is building an AI-forward autonomy stack for contested environments where GPS and other sensing are unavailable or unreliable. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will own and scale the training, data, and edge-inference backbone that every vision and multi-sensor model on our product lines depends on for detection, tracking, search, navigation, targeting, and automatic target recognition. This is a broad, high-ownership role: you'll stand up the data and training infrastructure that lets the autonomy team iterate fast, generate synthetic data to cover the long tail, and get research-grade models running in real time on embedded hardware in flight. We are generalists, so you'll move fluidly between infrastructure, modeling, and deployment., * Own and evolve the training and data infrastructure the autonomy team builds on: ingestion from flight/sim/HITL, curation and mining, labeling/QA workflows, dataset versioning (DVC/Parquet), and reproducible dataset builds. * Stand up and scale training/eval infrastructure: distributed multi-GPU training, experiment tracking, a model registry, and CI-based evaluation with regression gates plus automated field-data to retrain to validate to redeploy loops. * Deploy and optimize models for real-time edge inference on Jetson-class hardware (quantization/pruning, TensorRT/ONNX Runtime); profile CPU/GPU and hit tight latency, throughput, and SWaP targets. * Build and improve models across the portfolio as a hands-on IC: detection, segmentation, tracking, target/area search, classification/ATR, and multi-sensor fusion for EO/IR and auxiliary sensing. * Generate and manage synthetic data at scale (simulation + domain randomization) to cover long-tail and degraded conditions and close sim-to-real gaps. * Instrument runtime health, drift detection, and graceful degradation, and wire model-performance metrics back into the data and retraining loop. * Live close to flight data with visualization, triage, and root-cause tooling so the team can go from field logs to insight and model updates rapidly. * Partner with other autonomy disciplines across perception, localization, embedded, and flight-test to take capabilities from prototype to sim to HITL to flight to deployment. ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Introduction to Azure Machine Learning](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/368-introduction-to-azure-machine-learning) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [How to develop an autonomous car end-to-end: Robotic Drive and the mobility revolution](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/22-how-to-develop-an-autonomous-car-end-to-end-robotic-drive-and-the-mobility-revolution) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [MLops – Deploying, Maintaining And Evolving Machine Learning Models in Production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/115-mlops-deploying-maintaining-and-evolving-machine-learning-models-in-production) - [MLOps – What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/125-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers)
