• Stay current with advances in computer vision research, including new architectures, training methods, and foundation models, and translate relevant innovations into practical solutions
• Leverage Hugging Face for pretrained backbones, model assets, and rapid experimentation
• Apply Vision‑Language Models (VLMs) to multimodal computer vision workflows (e.g., OCR, image‑to‑text, prompt‑driven visual understanding)
• Design, manage, and continuously improve image and video labeling workflows, using Roboflow or similar annotation tools
• Deliver computer vision models for surface and downhole image analysis, including lithology, facies, and textural interpretation
• Optimize computationally heavy training and inference workloads, including GPU utilization, memory efficiency, and throughput/latency tradeoffs
• Work with GPU‑accelerated environments (CUDA‑enabled frameworks) and AWS‑based ML infrastructure, including Amazon SageMaker when appropriate
• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams (AI platform, software engineering, domain experts) and mentor junior engineers
• Communicate technical findings, experimental results, and recommendations clearly through presentations, demos, and written documentation

• Master's Degree in Computer Science or a related technical field required.
• 6+ years of hands‑on experience in computer vision or applied deep learning. An equivalent combination of relevant education and experience will be considered.
