• Managing our daily pipeline on both on-premise servers and AWS
• Working closely with the AI engineering, backend and frontend teams

You should have the following qualities:

• Deep expertise in Python including:
• Multiprocessing / multithreaded applications
• Class-based inheritance and modules
• DB integration including pymongo and sqlalchemy (we have MongoDB and PostgreSQL databases on our backend)
• Understanding Python performance bottlenecks, and how to profile and improve the performance of production code including:
• Optimal multithreading / multiprocessing strategies
• Memory bottlenecks and other bottlenecks encountered with large datasets and use of numpy / opencv / image processing
• Experience in creating soft real-time processing tasks is a plus
• Expertise in Docker-based virtualization including:
• Creating & maintaining custom Docker images
• Deployment of Docker images on cloud and on-premise services
• Experience with maintaining cloud applications in AWS environments
• Experience in deploying machine learning algorithms into production (e.g. PyTorch, tensorflow, opencv, etc) is a plus
• Experience with image processing in python is a plus (e.g. openCV, Pillow, etc)
• Experience with running Nvidia GPU / CUDA-based tasks is a plus (Nvidia Triton, MLFlow)
• Knowledge of video file formats (mp4, mov, avi, etc.), encoding, compression, and using ffmpeg to perform common video processing tasks is a plus.
• Excited about working in a fast-changing startup environment
• Willingness to learn rapidly on the job, try different things, and deliver results
• Ideally a gamer or someone interested in watching gaming content online

Seniority: We are looking for a mid to senior level engineer

Salary: Will be commensurate with experience.
