Machine Learning Engineer – Computer Vision
6-month initial contract | Melbourne | Hybrid
We are looking for an experienced Machine Learning Engineer to join a Melbourne-based organisation delivering production-grade AI and computer vision solutions.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who has experience taking machine learning and computer vision models beyond experimentation and into real-world production environments.
The role
You will work across the development, deployment and optimisation of machine learning solutions, with a particular focus on computer vision.
You will be involved across the ML lifecycle — from data preparation and model development through to deployment, monitoring and ongoing improvement.
What you will be doing
- Design, build and optimise machine learning and computer vision models
- Develop solutions across areas such as image classification, object detection, segmentation and/or video analytics
- Build production-quality ML applications and services using Python
- Deploy and operate ML workloads within AWS
- Develop scalable data and inference pipelines
- Evaluate model performance and improve accuracy, reliability and efficiency
- Work with engineering and business stakeholders to translate real-world problems into practical ML solutions
- Contribute to MLOps, automated deployment, monitoring and model lifecycle management
What we are looking for
You will bring strong commercial experience as a Machine Learning Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or similar, including:
- Strong hands-on Python development skills
- Commercial experience developing computer vision solutions
- Strong understanding of machine learning and deep learning fundamentals
- Experience with frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow and/or OpenCV
- Experience deploying ML solutions into AWS cloud environments
- Understanding of production ML/MLOps practices
- Experience building scalable, maintainable and well-tested production code
- Strong problem-solving and communication skills
Experience with AWS services used for machine learning, containerisation, CI/CD and production model deployment will be highly regarded.
The opportunity
This is an initial 6-month contract with a Melbourne-based team offering a hybrid working arrangement.
You will have the opportunity to work on genuine computer vision problems where machine learning is being applied to real-world use cases rather than purely proof-of-concept work.
If you are a Machine Learning Engineer with strong Computer Vision, Python and AWS experience, apply now or get in touch for a confidential discussion.
