Role Summary
The Senior Associate AI/ML Engineer builds production-grade ML and multimodal systems that support media workflows such as automated metadata extraction, video understanding, speech transcription, moderation, and recommendation. They own model development, MLOps integration, and production deployment while mentoring junior engineers.
Detailed Responsibilities Model & Pipeline Development
Build and deploy multimodalMLmodelsspanning NLP, CV, ASR, OCR, and video analytics.
Develop robust pipelines for:
o Video frame extraction, shot detection
o Speech-to-text, speaker diarization
o Image tagging, content moderation
o Multimodal embeddings (CLIP, SigLIP, VideoCLIP)
Implement RAG(RetrievalAugmentedGeneration)with multimodal indexing.
Optimization & Performance Engineering
Optimize model latency for real-time content tagging or streaming workflows.
Implement batching, quantization, distillation, or GPU optimizations.
MLOps and Deployment
Build CI/CD pipelines for ML using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps.
Deploy models as microservices using Docker, Kubernetes, KServe, or FastAPI.
Integrate observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana) for model monitoring.
Media Engineering Integration
