Full Time Image Annotation Jobs in Boston, MA (NOW HIRING)

Job Description

A fast-growing robotics company is seeking a Senior Machine Learning Data Engineer to help develop the data foundation that powers intelligent robotic systems operating in high-throughput logistics environments. The organization builds AI-driven automation solutions that leverage computer vision, machine learning, and robotic manipulation to solve complex real-world challenges involving package handling, object identification, and operational optimization.

As a Senior Machine Learning Data Engineer, you will focus on the collection, preparation, management, and delivery of data used to train, evaluate, and improve machine learning models. Unlike traditional data engineering positions that concentrate on analytics, reporting, or platform infrastructure, this role is centered on enabling AI and computer vision teams to build more accurate and effective robotic systems.

You will work closely with machine learning engineers, roboticists, software developers, and product teams to create scalable data pipelines capable of handling large volumes of image, video, sensor, and operational data. The ideal candidate enjoys solving challenges surrounding data labeling, feature generation, model training datasets, data versioning, and machine learning infrastructure. This role offers the opportunity to directly influence how AI systems learn and improve within a cutting-edge robotics environment.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong proficiency with Python and SQL

• Experience building data pipelines for machine learning workloads

• Experience working with large-scale image, video, or sensor datasets

• Knowledge of data processing frameworks such as Spark or Ray

• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS

• Understanding of data modeling and storage solutions for ML applications

• Experience building ETL workflows and automation solutions

• Familiarity with machine learning lifecycle concepts

• Experience with version control and software engineering best practices

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills

Desired Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of Data Engineering or Machine Learning Infrastructure experience

• Experience supporting computer vision or AI-focused teams

• Robotics, automation, or industrial technology experience
