About The Position

Custom Manufacturing & Engineering, Inc. (CME) is seeking a Software Engineer to develop custom collaborative robot (cobot) control integrations, artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) applications, and related GUIs for advanced manufacturing and inspection environments. The role involves working with cobots (UR eSeries and others), simulation platforms (NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Gazebo/ROS2), and AI/ML tools to create scalable solutions that enhance manufacturing automation and product quality.

Requirements

Bachelor's in Computer Science, Computer/Software Engineering, Data Science, or related field.
1–4 years programming in environments such as Python (Advanced), C++, R, Java.
Experience with ML/AI Frameworks & Libraries: PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Hugging Face Transformers.
Experience with Data Processing & Databases: Pandas, NumPy, Apache Spark, SQL, PostgreSQL.
Experience with MLOps & Deployment: Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow, AWS (SageMaker), GCP (Vertex AI).
Experience with Version Control & Collaboration: Git, GitHub, GitLab, Jira.
Strong background in scalable software design, API development, and testing practices.
Familiarity with data science.
Must meet "U.S. Person" requirements due to access to technology subject to ITAR/EAR.

Nice To Haves

Experience with recommendation systems, pattern recognition, or large-scale software architectures.

Responsibilities

Internally develop and/or support iterative enhancements to new in-house software applications/tools for business and technical operations.
Full-stack development duties for an AI and machine learning role, deploying, scaling, and integrating machine learning models into user-facing applications.
Develop and deploy ML models (e.g., LLMs, CNNs, GANs, ResNets) for deep learning in support of computer vision, inspection data, and ERP/operations use cases and improvements; or for engineering development/R&D in field of robotics and unmanned systems/drones.
Design, develop, and maintain robust API interfaces connecting internal AI/ML platforms with external enterprise software (e.g., ERP systems and security platforms like Microsoft Defender for Endpoint API, CrowdStrike Falcon API, or other API developer needs/opportunities).
Build scalable pipelines to ingest, transform, and sync data between ML models and third-party enterprise APIs.
Design and implement cobot applications, multi-cobot workstations, and simulation environments.
Build scalable GUIs and reusable software components for data pipelines and manufacturing dashboards.
Analyze and optimize code for performance, reliability, and maintainability.
Collaborate across engineering, manufacturing, and management teams to deliver end-to-end solutions.
Support or lead small team technical proposals and provide guidance to peers on advanced automation and ML projects.
