Software Engineer - ML/Computer Vision (Battery Sorting)
$152,500–$287,500 year
On-siteMcCarran, Nevada, United States
Job Summary
Develop, test, and maintain production software systems powering automated battery sorting, including ML inference, image acquisition, and sensor integration. Train and deploy computer vision models for battery chemistry classification while building services and APIs that connect outputs to downstream systems like MES and PLC controls. Own observability across the stack through structured logging, metrics, and alerting, then monitor model performance in production to drive iterative improvements. Collaborate cross-functionally with Controls, Hardware, and Manufacturing teams to translate operational needs into software enhancements. This role generates patents in automated battery classification and sits at the intersection of software engineering and machine learning within Redwood Materials' global battery supply chain.
Required Qualifications
- B.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- 2+ years of industry experience working with machine learning models, preferably in computer vision
- Hands-on experience with ML frameworks and libraries such as PyTorch and OpenCV
- Experience contributing to production codebases and pipelines with an emphasis on clean, well-documented, and well-tested code
- Experience designing and tracking ML experiments using tools such as MLflow
- Familiarity with edge deployment or model optimization techniques for inference (e.g., quantization, TensorRT, ONNX Runtime) in latency-sensitive or resource-constrained environments
- Experience with OCR, image classification pipelines, or multi-sensor and multimodal fusion
- Experience working in or alongside industrial, manufacturing, or operations environments where software interacts with physical systems
- Strong cross-functional communication skills and ability to prioritize and execute in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
- Willingness and ability to travel to Reno, NV as needed
Desired Qualifications
- A passion for sustainability and making the world a better place!
