Technical Lead

Location: Hyderabad & Bangalore

Experience: 8+ years

Must-Have Skills

• 8–10 years in software engineering, with 3+ years in on-device / edge AI deployment.
• Strong C++ and Python.
• Hands-on with embedded inference runtimes — LiteRT/TFLite, ONNX Runtime, ExecuTorch, TVM or vendor NPU SDKs — including delegate/execution-provider integration.
• Practical quantization expertise — INT8/INT4, per-channel schemes, calibration, accuracy recovery.
• Model formats and conversion tooling across PyTorch/TensorFlow to deployable graphs.
• Profiling on heterogeneous SoCs and reasoning about memory bandwidth as the dominant constraint.
• Understanding of CNN, transformer and modern vision/language model architectures.

Good-to-Have Skills

• On-device LLM/VLM deployment — llama.cpp class runtimes, speculative decoding, paged KV cache.
• Custom operator or kernel development for DSP/NPU/GPU (OpenCL, Vulkan compute, DSP intrinsics).
• Compiler-level work — MLIR, TVM, graph-level optimization passes.
• Vision pipeline integration and camera-to-inference zero-copy paths.
• MLOps for edge — model versioning, A/B evaluation, field accuracy monitoring.
