Jr./Mid Machine Learning Engineer - Time-Series & Inertial AI
Si-Ware
Job description
We are building a new Systems-Level Integration (SLI) team focused on Smart high-performance Inertial Sensors and Systems. As our first Machine Learning Engineer in the Riyadh office, you will pioneer the use of Deep Learning to enhance the raw performance of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) MEMS sensors.
In the initial phase of this role, you will focus entirely on software, simulation, and data-driven modeling. You will work with datasets provided by our core engineering team to train models that correct stochastic errors, denoise signals, and improve sensor performance.
What You Will Do
Time-Series AI Development: Design, train, and validate neural networks (CNNs, LSTMs, TCNs, or Transformers) to denoise raw inertial sensors data and fuse them for better performance.
Virtual Sensing: Develop AI models that enhance MEMS sensor outputs using self-supervised or supervised learning techniques.
Data Pipeline Engineering: Build robust data processing pipelines to handle massive, high-frequency inertial systems datasets (filtering, normalization, augmentation, and windowing).
Cross-Border Collaboration: Work closely with the Egypt-based Systems and Firmware teams to ensure your models are designed within the computational limits of edge microcontrollers (TinyML).
Rapid prototyping: You will be implementing ML algorithms based on published academic research papers.
Research: You will be asked to prepare a detailed literature review on the state of the art usages of ML in improving inertial systems performance.
Model Optimization: Quantize and prune trained PyTorch/TensorFlow models for eventual deployment on resource-constrained embedded targets (e.g., ARM Cortex-M).
Job requirements
(Must-Haves)
Citizenship: This role is open to Saudi Nationals in line with local employment regulations.
Education: BSc or MSc in Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or a strictly related engineering field.
AI/ML Expertise: Strong hands-on experience with Deep Learning frameworks (PyTorch preferred) and a solid understanding of training models on time-series data.
Coding: Python proficiency is mandatory, with strong software engineering practices (Git, unit testing, modular code design).
The "Nice-to-Haves" (Bonus Points)
Sensor Fusion Knowledge: Familiarity with classical inertial navigation concepts, attitude representations, Extended Kalman Filters (EKF), or AHRS algorithms.
Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs): Understanding of how to constrain AI models using the laws of physics (e.g., kinematics).
Edge AI: Experience with TensorFlow Lite for Microcontrollers, STM32Cube.AI, or ONNX runtime.
