Job Description

About the Role

You'll be joining our awesome team of hardware, full-stack and CV engineers developing our next generation computer vision capabilities, building and optimizing models that power real-world retail applications. This role demands someone who can move seamlessly from training custom YOLO architectures to deploying optimized models on edge devices - and from fine-tuning open-source VLMs to building VLA pipelines that reason about and act on what they see.

What You'll Do

  • Model Development: Design, train, and iterate on custom object detection models specifically tuned for retail environments, inventory tracking, and product recognition

  • VLM & VLA Integration: Fine-tune and deploy open-source vision-language models (LLaVA, Qwen-VL, InternVL, PaliGemma, etc.) for product understanding, zero-shot classification, and scene reasoning; build vision-language-action pipelines that translate visual understanding into downstream decisions

  • Edge Optimization: Take state-of-the-art models and make them blazingly fast for edge deployment through quantization, pruning, and architectural optimization

  • Dataset Engineering: Build robust data pipelines and annotation workflows to continuously improve model performance on diverse retail scenarios

  • Research & Innovation: Stay ahead of the curve on CV and VLM research, prototype new architectures, and determine what's actually production-ready versus academic noise

  • Technical Leadership: Mentor engineers, establish best practices for model development, and drive technical decisions around our CV infrastructure

Required Experience

  • 4+ years of hands-on computer vision engineering, with a proven track record of shipping models to production

  • Deep expertise with YOLO and YOLO-E architectures - you've trained them, tuned them, and know their quirks intimately

  • Hands-on experience with open-source VLMs (LLaVA, Qwen-VL, InternVL, PaliGemma, or similar) - fine-tuning, evaluation, and production deployment

  • Familiarity with VLA frameworks and applying vision-language-action models to real-world perception and decision tasks

  • Edge deployment mastery - experience with TensorRT, ONNX Runtime , or similar frameworks for optimizing models for constrained devices, including quantized VLMs

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals - clean code, version control, CI/CD for ML, and the ability to build maintainable systems

  • Production ML experience - you understand the difference between a Jupyter notebook and a production-grade ML system

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience developing solutions deployed to the NVIDIA Jetson family of products

  • Experience with retail, inventory management, or similar product-focused CV applications

  • Background with PyTorch and modern training frameworks ( Transformers, LitGPT, Unsloth, etc. )

  • Experience running VLM inference efficiently (vLLM, llama.cpp, SGLang, or similar)

  • Familiarity with synthetic data generation and data augmentation techniques

  • Knowledge of model versioning and experiment tracking ( MLflow, Weights & Biases, etc. )

  • Publications or open-source contributions in computer vision or multimodal AI

  • Experience with AWS: EC2, ECS, Fargate, S3, Bedrock, SageMaker, etc.

Technical Stack

While we value expertise over specific tools, you'll likely work with: PyTorch, YOLO variants, open-source VLMs, TensorRT, ONNX, vLLM, Docker, Kubernetes, and various MLOps tooling.

Location: Remote

Panoptyc is building the future of retail intelligence. If you're ready to tackle hard CV and multimodal problems at scale, we want to hear from you.
