  • Demonstrated hands-on hardware experience (sensor integration, interfaces, debugging, lab equipment usage)

Desired Qualifications
  • Experience coding in Python
  • Experience in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision, and machine learning techniques.
  • Practical experience implementing or optimizing CV/ML models using frameworks such as OpenCV, TensorRT, TensorFlow/Keras/TensorFlow Lite, PyTorch, OpenVINO, or similar.
