Research Engineer: Machine Learning

Duration:  12 Months

Pay Rate: 75-80/HR. on W2

We are looking for a skilled and motivated machine learning research engineer, to develop and apply state-of-the-art machine learning techniques for wristband/hand-based gesture inputs to deliver seamless experiences for humans — specifically, to develop online learning and reinforcement learning techniques that improve gesture recognition models in real time to achieve all-day high performance.

Responsibilities:

• Develop or apply state-of-the-art reinforcement learning and online learning algorithms that improve model accuracy in real-time for everyday usage.
• Collaborate with research engineers and scientists in building software platforms, for both data analysis and real-time experience of human-system interactions;= deploy and evaluate the online algorithms in real usage.

Minimum qualifications:

• Has a BS with 4+ years of experience or MS with 2+ years of experience or PhD with 1+ years of experience in Machine Learning, Robotics, Statistics, Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, Computer Science, Signal processing or a related area.
• Has 2+ years’ experience coding in Python, Pytorch, with proven track record of implementing and deploy Machine Learning algorithms.
• Has 1+ years’ experience with deep learning?

Preferred qualifications:

• Has 1+ years of experience in any of the following domains: (deep) reinforcement learning, online learning, Bayesian optimization (active learning) or semi supervised learning.
• Has 1+ years of experience of meta-learning, multi-tasking or few-shot Learning.
