Role description

Join Asseti and push the boundaries of computer vision for geospatial analysis. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you'll develop and deploy models that analyze aerial imagery at scale -detecting cracks in infrastructure, identifying components like solar panels and parking lines, and scoring asset condition using vision models. You'll work with orthophotos spanning thousands of sites, building inference pipelines that process gigapixel images efficiently on distributed GPU infrastructure.

We're looking for someone with 8+ years of ML engineering experience and strong image processing fundamentals. You should have hands-on experience with PyTorch, object detection (YOLO family), and segmentation architectures (U-Net or similar). Experience with large image inference techniques (tiled/sliced inference, SAHI), geospatial data (GDAL, GeoTIFF, coordinate systems), and deploying models to production is essential. Familiarity with vision LLMs, 3D data processing, or photogrammetry workflows is a plus.

Our ML stack includes PyTorch, Ultralytics/YOLOv8, SAHI, U-Net, GDAL, OpenCV, and Claude Vision API. Models run on GCP GPU instances processing multi-region orthophoto data stored in S3. You'll own the full lifecycle - from training and evaluation to deployment and monitoring.

We offer a truly remote-first culture, allowing you to work flexibly from anywhere in South Africa. You'll join a small, senior team solving unique challenges at the intersection of computer vision, geospatial analysis, and predictive analysis. Your models will directly impact how organizations assess and maintain critical assets worldwide.
