Jr./Mid Machine Learning Engineer – Time-Series & Inertial AI
Si-Ware Systems Riyadh, Riyadh Region, Saudi Arabia
Measuring and Control Instrument Manufacturing · 51-200 employees
About the role
You will develop and train deep learning models to denoise and enhance raw inertial sensor data for high-performance systems. Additionally, you will build robust data pipelines and optimize models for deployment on resource-constrained edge microcontrollers.
What they look for
Requirements
Candidates must hold a BSc or MSc in an engineering field and possess strong proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks. Membership in the Saudi Council of Engineers is mandatory, and the role is restricted to Saudi Nationals.
Full description
We are building a new Systems-Level Integration (SLI) team focused on Smart high-performance Inertial Sensors and Systems. As a Machine Learning Engineer in our expanding Riyadh office, you will pioneer the use of Deep Learning to enhance the raw performance of MEMS IMU 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, Transformers, etc…) to denoise raw inertial sensors data and fuse them for better performance.
- Virtual Sensing: Develop AI models that enhance MEMS IMU 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 required to regularly survey state-of-the-art academic research papers on the intersection of machine learning and inertial systems.
- Model Optimization: Quantize and prune trained PyTorch/TensorFlow models for eventual deployment on resource-constrained embedded targets (e.g., ARM Cortex-M).
(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.
- SCE Membership: Engineer membership in the Saudi council of engineers (Engineer Grade category) is mandatory for this role.
- 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 (unit testing, modular code design).
- Version Control: Git proficiency is mandatory.
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 machine learning model deployment on Microcontrollers, STM32Cube.AI, or ONNX runtime.
Why Join Us
