* Optimize LLMs and multimodal models for device deployment
* Apply quantization (8-bit, 4-bit, mixed precision), pruning, distillation
* Implement inference acceleration methods such as speculative decoding
* Enhance performance of small language models enabling tiny agents at the edge
* Deploy optimized models via Ollama, llama.cpp, ONNX Runtime, TFLite
* Create benchmarking pipelines for generative/agentic systems
* Build PoCs for industrial safety monitoring, in‑cabin sensing, etc.
* Translate advanced techniques into product-ready implementations
Profile Requirements
* MSc/PhD/EngD in a technical field
* 5+ years in AI/software engineering with LLMs, VLMs, performance systems
* Experience with quantization, pruning, optimization techniques
* Strong PyTorch / TensorFlow background
* Experience with agentic AI (LangChain, Google ADK, SmolAgents, etc.)
* Understanding of safety & guardrails for agentic systems
* Experience with deployment frameworks (CUDA, TensorRT, TFLite, ONNX, Ollama)
* Embedded systems/NPU accelerator experience
* Strong Linux, embedded architecture, version control, build systems
* ML‑Ops experience (MLFlow, ClearML)
* Knowledge of YOCTO / OpenEmbedded beneficial
* Excellent programming in C, C++, Python, Bash
* Excellent English communication skills
