Interview Timeline
About the position
You will help CoVar develop software and machine learning algorithms to solve real-world customer problems. You will work with data, develop algorithms, evaluate results, and write the production code that goes onto real-world systems. You may have the opportunity to present your work to high-level customers in the DoW and in the industry.
Qualifications
Applicants should have expertise in Python (including NumPy, pandas, and other packages) and PyTorch. Deep understanding of machine learning fundamentals (gradient descent, cross-validation, ROC curves, confusion matrices) are necessary. Knowledge of classical machine learning (e.g., support-vector-machines, logistic regression) are valued. Applicants are ideally familiar with some computer vision algorithms (e.g., for object classification (ResNet, ResNext), object detection (e.g., YOLO, CenterNet), or image segmentation) and/or other modern image processing AI/ML techniques (vision image transformers, vision language models, etc.). Previous experience with DoW customers is a plus.
