Job Description

Vantor Inc. is hiring a Machine Learning Engineer (onsite) to transform raw satellite imagery into trustworthy labels and production-ready computer vision models.

Responsibilities

Build systems that convert raw satellite imagery into trusted, well-labeled data
Develop machine learning algorithms that use labeled data to produce models
Partner with internal domain experts, external annotation partners, and Vantor’s Machine Learning and Software Engineering teams to design robust, scalable, low-latency solutions
Create pipelines for large geospatial imagery and metadata, including sensor, acquisition, and geolocation attributes, and move data reliably between annotation, storage, and model training systems
Track data lineage and versioning so each label can be traced back to its source image, guideline version, and annotator
Develop, adapt, and deploy models that generate proposed annotations to reduce manual labeling effort and improve labeling decisions
Build and operate production inference pipelines
Evaluate model performance against labeled data
Use model feedback to determine which imagery should be labeled next
Ship a reliable data service, train and deploy a computer vision model, and connect both into a single continuously improving system

Requirements

5+ years of relevant experience in machine learning engineering, data engineering, backend software engineering, or a closely related technical role
Hands-on experience training, fine-tuning, or adapting deep learning models with a modern ML framework
Experience deploying machine learning models in production, including building batch or real-time inference pipelines and managing model versions
Hands-on experience building and operating services on a major cloud platform (managed compute, databases, storage, identity and access management)
Experience building and operating workflow orchestration for data or ML pipelines
Experience owning containerized services, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code
Proven ability to support production systems, including debugging, observability, secure configuration, and incident response
Strong Python application development skills
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, Geospatial Science or GIS, Remote Sensing, or a related discipline, or equivalent demonstrated experience
