About the role
- We have one of the richest survey-grade datasets in the world.
- Our product, Digital Surveyor, automates work that takes surveyors and engineers weeks of manual effort.
- You'll have the opportunity to solve problems that few other teams have the data or the talent to take on.
Responsibilities
- Build and grow our ML team: hiring, onboarding, structuring the team as it scales, and shaping the split between research and engineering as our organization matures.
- Stay technically hands-on: review designs and code and weigh in on architecture and modeling decisions, so that you stay credible and connected to the team and problems.
- Partner with product and engineering leadership to align Mach9's investment into research with our product strategy and customer needs.
Requirements
- Experience leading and growing teams - hiring and mentoring ML engineers and researchers.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to operate across research and engineering.
- You must be comfortable engaging deeply with our technical work.
Nice to have
- Experience with CAD AI, design automation, or applying ML to generate structured/geometric output, rather than just classification or detection.
- Experience scaling an ML organization through a growth phase - defining team structure and hiring strategy.
Benefits
- you'll set the technical vision for our strategy, mentor and grow a team of ML engineers and researchers, and own the throughline from hard research problems to shipped product capabilities.
- This role is ideal for experienced engineers, team leads, and managers who want to push the frontier of 3D computer vision and perception.
- We need you to bring a strong vision of what's possible with our unique dataset, and then to build a team around you to accomplish that vision.
- Define and drive a coherent vision for how Mach9 can leverage our data advantage to build the best automation products across surveying and design.
- Translate your vision into a technical roadmap, execute strongly, and bring our products to the next level.
- We're looking for a Head of Machine Learning to build and grow the organization that turns our data into the automated products of the future in surveying and design.
