## Description

We are seeking a highly skilled and innovative Machine Learning Engineer to join the team responsible for building the perception stack for Blue River's autonomous tractor initiative. The hire will be responsible for developing CVML models and training and testing pipelines to enhance system safety and performance in challenging production environments. This role will range from developing initial prototypes all the way to scaling for production. We're looking for a motivated and collaborative individual to help build the future of autonomous agriculture., A combination, not necessarily all-inclusive, of the following:

 * Design, develop, and optimize CVML models and training pipelines for perception tasks including segmentation and depth estimation, with a focus on safety and performance in challenging production environments.
 * Own the full ML development lifecycle: from initial prototyping through to production-scale deployment on edge and cloud systems.
 * Collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams to integrate perception models into BRT's autonomous tractor initiative.
 * Evaluate and improve model performance through rigorous implementation, testing, and analysis of metrics across large-scale datasets.
 * Contribute to advancing autonomous agriculture by applying cutting-edge machine learning and computer vision techniques to real-world farming challenges.
