Job Description
Platform Engineer III
Bengaluru, Karnataka

Job Summary

We are looking for an Platform Engineer III with deep expertise in AI/ML system design, large-scale deployment, and advanced model architectures (Vision + Generative AI). The role requires designing scalable architectures, enabling MLOps, and driving adoption of advanced AI across NLP, Vision, and multimodal domains.

Key Responsibilities

Architecture & System Design Design end-to-end AI architectures for NLP, Vision, and multimodal systems. Architect vision-based AI solutions (image classification, object detection, segmentation, video analytics, OCR, 3D vision, multimodal fusion). Define custom neural architectures (CNNs, Transformers, Vision Transformers, ConvNeXt, Swin, SAM, CLIP). Build multimodal AI pipelines combining text, image, video, and speech data. Lead optimization strategies (model compression, distillation, quantization, pruning). Architect real-time vision inference systems for edge and cloud. MLOps & Infrastructure Design automated model lifecycle for vision models: training → validation → deployment → monitoring → retraining. Implement distributed training for large vision models (Detectron2, MMDetection, YOLOv8, Segment Anything, OpenMMLab). Optimize model serving for high-throughput vision tasks using Triton Inference Server, ONNX Runtime, TensorRT. Build benchmarking pipelines for latency, accuracy, and cost trade-offs. Data & Integration Architect image/video data pipelines (preprocessing, augmentation, annotation tools, synthetic data generation). Integrate vision AI systems with enterprise workflows (retail analytics, quality inspection, surveillance, healthcare imaging,
