Sr. AI/ML Scientist II

About Us:Zeitview is the leading intelligent aerial imaging company for high-value infrastructure, providing businesses with actionable, real-time insights to recover revenue, reduce risk and improve build quality. We serve customers in the solar, wind, insurance, construction, real estate, and critical infrastructure industries. Trusted by the largest enterprises in the world, Zeitview is active in over 70 countries. Our mission is to accelerate the global transition to renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure through advanced inspection solutions. Take a look at our latest achievementshere!About the Role:As a Senior ML Scientist II, you will help design and develop novel AI computer vision models across multiple industry verticals including solar, wind turbines, and commercial roofing. These models will be created using various sensor data ranging from RGB (Red, Green, Blue), thermal, and geospatial images collected from drones, fixed wing aircrafts, along with other image sources. Increasingly, this includes developing and applying vision-language models (VLMs) and agentic AI systems to advance multimodal understanding and enable automated workflows. Working collaboratively with product managers and backend engineers will be required to ensure the models are performing to the product specifications.The day-to-day duties of the job will include collecting, organizing, and analyzing image and thermal data collected from customers, and then programmatically converting the data into formats that are usable by machine learning models. The duties will also include programming/developing machine learning models using cloud technologies such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) along with assisting in programmatic deployments of these models into production. In this position, you’ll be collaborating and presenting models, results, and roadmapping ideas with other members of the ML team and other cross functional teams. It will also be expected that this role will require you to write documentation on how to run, test, and use the various models and other programs that you will develop. It will also be expected that you mentor and coach more junior developers in the AI department.Responsibilities:Design and develop novel AI computer vision models across multiple verticals such as solar, wind, and commercial propertiesDevelop AI models that operate on a variety of sensor data ranging from RGB to thermal imageryDevelop AI models that operate on a variety of image sources such as drones, fixed wing aircraft.Design and implement VLMs and agentic AI systems to extend multimodal understanding and enable autonomous decision-making across inspection workflowsCollect, organize, and analyze data for machine learning model developmentUtilizing cloud technologies such as AWS to train and deploy AI modelsCollaborating with and presenting model results to other members of the AI team and other cross-functional teamsWrite documentation and tests on how to run, test, and use various models and programs that you developMentor and coach more junior developers within the AI departmentQualifications:Masters Degree (or higher) in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Statistics, Computer Science8+ years experience with building deep learning based computer vision models in a professional setting8+ years experience with Python, Pytorch, and AWS5+ years experience working with aerial imagery and geospatial dataExperience with mentoring and coaching more junior developersExperience with collaborating with different teams to ensure models meet product specificationsExperience with state of the art AI models such as generative, agentic, or multimodal modelsRecent publications in machine learning, geospatial, or similar academic conferencesWhat’s Included:Feel great about your work as you join a leading mission-driven intelligent aerial imaging company - our goal is to accelerate the global transition to renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure, and you personally will play a large part in making this happen!Your choice of multiple medical insurance plans, including one that covers 100% of the premium for yourself and your dependents100% paid dental and vision insuranceUnlimited PTO: We mean it when we say we prioritize work-life balance and mental health.
