Computer Vision MLE

our client is placing a senior computer vision engineer on a delivery team for a focused 3-4 week technical assessment engagement, with a strong possibility of extending into a longer build. The work is a feasibility assessment of a computer vision system that identifies and grades physical objects from images. You will benchmark baseline model performance on a representative image sample, measure accuracy against a held-out set, assess data quality and the realistic performance ceiling, and translate the findings into a decision-grade report for a non-technical executive audience.

What we are looking for:

• 5+ years in computer vision and ML engineering, including hands-on fine-tuning of modern vision foundation models

• Experience classifying or grading physical objects from images (identification, condition or quality scoring, defect detection, or similar)

• Strong evaluation discipline: representative sampling, train/eval separation, honest accuracy benchmarking, and calibration

• Ability to assess the feasibility and production-readiness of a computer vision system and communicate the verdict clearly to a non-technical audience

Strong pluses:

• Experience with authentication, counterfeit, or anomaly detection

• Exposure to private equity diligence or other time-boxed advisory work

• Familiarity with imaging hardware and capture pipelines (cameras, lighting) and edge or on-prem deployment

Engagement is remote. Compensation set by our client's talent team.
