Senior ML / Perception Engineer

About the Role

TreeX Robotics is building autonomous aerial systems for real-world agricultural environments. We are looking for a highly skilled ML/Perception Engineer to take ownership of our vision pipeline — from data to deployed models running on embedded systems.

This role is focused on building perception systems that actually work in the field, under real-world constraints.

What You'll Do

• Own the full perception pipeline: data → training → evaluation → deployment
• Develop and improve detection and segmentation models using RGB + depth data
• Build and maintain a data engine: define labeling strategies, drive dataset quality and consistency, handle noisy and imperfect data
• Ensure models generalize to real-world conditions: changing lighting, occlusions, small / hard-to-detect objects
• Deploy models to Jetson NX-based systems — ensure compatibility with TensorRT, perform export, validation, and debugging
• Collaborate closely with software, robotics, and algorithm engineers to integrate perception into the system

What We're Looking For

• Strong experience building and deploying computer vision models (detection + segmentation)
• Hands-on experience with training pipelines and dataset iteration
• Proven ability to improve performance with imperfect / noisy data
• Experience working with real-world vision problems (not only curated datasets)
• Practical understanding of deployment constraints (latency, memory, model size)
• Experience exporting models to ONNX / TensorRT (or similar)

Nice to Have

• Experience with RGB + depth / 3D perception
• Background in robotics or embedded systems
• Familiarity with edge devices (Jetson family)

Why This Role

• Work on real-world problems, not benchmark datasets
• Own a critical part of the system end-to-end
• High autonomy and direct impact on product performance
