Machine Learning Engineer – Computer Vision

INFOYA • Toronto, ON

2d • CA$100,000 - CA$110,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

We are seeking a seasoned Machine Learning Engineer – Computer Vision to design, optimise, and deploy deep learning models for large-scale, real-time edge inference. In this role, you will work on the end-to-end lifecycle of computer vision models—from training and evaluation to optimisation, automated governance, and edge deployment—while advancing MLOps capabilities on Google Cloud. You will work at the intersection of deep learning, cloud infrastructure, and edge AI, building reliable, high-performance solutions that scale across devices and continuously improve through automation and data driven evaluation.

Requirements

• 3- 6 years in Machine Learning Engineering, preferably Computer Vision.
• Strong mathematical and architectural understanding of deep learning concepts, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and standard object detection architectures.
• Deep, hands-on expertise with TensorFlow 2.x and/or PyTorch.
• Proven experience optimizing deep learning models for edge devices using TFLite (e.g., post-training quantization, pruning, handling custom ops).
• Strong proficiency in Google Cloud Platform, specifically building and running custom components in Vertex AI Pipelines (KFP).
• Advanced programming skills in Python, with experience containerizing ML workloads using Docker.
• Solid understanding of Google Cloud Storage (GCS) for managing massive datasets and handling model artifact hand-offs.
• Critical thinking, Effective communication skills – verbal and written, Problem solving, and Dealing with complexity

Nice To Haves

• Hands-on experience with the Ultralytics YOLOv8 ecosystem, specifically bridging PyTorch YOLO weights to TensorFlow/TFLite edge deployments.
• Experience using Google Cloud Composer (Apache Airflow) to schedule and trigger complex ML training pipelines based on data arrival or model drift.
• Familiarity with Google Cloud Dataflow (Apache Beam) for large-scale, parallelized image preprocessing, augmentation, and dataset formatting (e.g., generating TFRecords).
• Experience with continuous integration and continuous deployment practices specifically tailored for machine learning models.
• Knowledge or experience in Generative AI architectures, with experience building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines and developing multi-agent systems.

Responsibilities

• Design, train, evaluate, and fine-tune state-of-the-art deep learning models for image classification and object detection tasks.
• Maintain, optimize and add advanced MLOps capabilities to existing Vertex AI Kubeflow Pipelines (KFP).
• Manage the complex conversion of models from frameworks like TensorFlow into highly optimized TensorFlow Lite (TFLite) artifacts for edge inference (e.g., handling Int8 full integer quantization and hardware-specific acceleration).
• Architect the deployment flow to save optimized edge models to Google Cloud Storage (GCS) and manage model versioning for seamless edge-device retrieval, bypassing traditional Vertex AI Endpoints.
• Implement automated evaluation gates to ensure newly trained models outperform existing production models before edge deployment.

Benefits

• Salary Range: CAD $100,000 - $110,000/ year
• The final compensation offered will depend on local market conditions and geographic location, as well as job-related factors such as the candidate’s knowledge, skills, qualifications, relevant experience, and education/training. Compensation may also include additional components such as benefits, and/or other incentives, where applicable.
• In accordance with new employment standards requirements, we retain copies of this job posting and applicant information for three (3) years after the posting is removed.
• We do not use AI technology; all applications are also reviewed by our recruitment team.
• Infoya is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, protected veteran status, aboriginal status, or any other legally protected factors.
