Senior AI Engineer

We are now looking for a Senior AI Engineer to help build powerful multimodal models and large-scale training systems that operate on both optical/multispectral and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data. This is a balanced role-part research, part engineering, all impact The work will involve both research-style tasks and practical engineering work. As a Senior AI Engineer, you will drive the development of state-of-the-art AI systems that can learn from and reason about large volumes of satellite imagery.

Your challenge

• Design and prototype multimodal architectures that combine optical and SAR inputs;
• Explore or adapt emerging foundation models for remote sensing tasks;
• Benchmark different modeling strategies and evaluate performance across diverse datasets;
• Build scalable training pipelines including tiling, sampling, augmentations, and distributed training workflows;
• Optimize pipelines for throughput, memory, and cost using Databricks, PyTorch Lightning, and MLflow;
• Automate experimentation, tracking, and comparison using MLflow and Databricks;
• Ensure your models and pipelines integrate smoothly into LiveEO's production systems.

Do you have experience in Python?, * Strong Python engineering fundamentals with clean, maintainable coding style;

• Deep experience with PyTorch and PyTorch Lightning;
• Experience implementing and training deep learning models at scale;
• Strong understanding of ML experimentation, versioning, and tracking via MLflow and Databricks;
• Excellent problem-solving, debugging, and optimization skills;
• Familiarity with AWS or other cloud platforms;
• Geospatial experience is highly preferred, including tools such as GDAL, Rasterio, GeoPandas, STAC, and basic SAR preprocessing libraries.

LiveEO leverages satellite imagery and artificial intelligence to provide actionable insights that drive decision-making across various industries. For example, we detect trees and their height in high-resolution imagery to help protect power grids, identify dangerous construction work around critical infrastructure, and ensure compliance with deforestation regulations., LiveEO is a well funded startup founded in 2018 and based in Berlin. Our primary service is modelling risk to our customers' assets and infrastructure from vegetation, ground deformation and change detection. We currently have around 160 employees from all over the world with a variety of backgrounds   If you require alternative methods of application or screening, you must approach the employer directly to request this as Indeed is not responsible for the employer's application process.
