• Practical experience with model compression techniques and the associated accuracy/performance trade-offs.
• Working knowledge of embedded SoC architectures and their implications for ML workload performance.
• Strong programming proficiency in C/C++ (modern C++ preferred) and Python.
• Familiarity with profiling tools and a structured approach to performance analysis.
• Exposure to low-level optimization techniques for AI workloads on embedded accelerators.
• Flexibility and willingness to work across multiple software layers as project needs evolve.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to influence and persuade stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
