• AI Model Integration Layer
  : Seamless integration of our object detection and classification models
• Quality Control Systems
  : Automated validation and human-in-the-loop review workflows
• Data Management Platform
  : Robust database systems for storing, indexing, and retrieving intelligence data
• End-User Interface
  : Intuitive platforms for intelligence dissemination and visualization
• Scalable Infrastructure
  : Cloud-native architecture handling large-scale data processing

What You'll Bring

Technical Leadership

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering with 2+ years in AI/ML system integration
• Proven track record of leading technical teams (2-10 developers)
• Experience shipping production ML/AI systems at scale

AI-Native Development Expertise

• Expert-level proficiency
  in leveraging AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, GPT-4, etc.)
• Demonstrated ability to use AI assistants for rapid prototyping, code generation, and debugging
• Experience with AI-powered testing, documentation, and deployment tools
• Track record of delivering projects 2-3x faster than traditional development approaches

Core Technical Skills

• Backend Development
  : Python, , or Go for high-performance systems
• Computer Vision Integration
