> Own end-to-end computer vision pipelines for extracting structured inventory data from clinical images using object detection, multimodal LLMs, and OCR. Requires 5+ years of CV experience and strong Python backend skills.

## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Design, build, implement and optimize multi-stage CV pipelines spanning segmentation, object detection, multimodal LLM/LVM extraction, machine-readable code decoding, and multi-source reconciliation
- Train or fine-tune detection models on custom medical supply datasets
- Build and own dataset strategy — leverage augmentation and synthetic data generation to improve the training and testing datasets when data doesn’t exist
- Monitor and improve pipeline accuracy — instrument field-level metrics, diagnose failure modes, and systematically improve precision/recall through model iteration and preprocessing optimization
- Design persistence schemas and audit data models that make every extraction independently reviewable
- Maintain and extend the async Python backend services that surface pipeline results to downstream clinical workflows

## Requirements
- 5+ years experience in computer vision and object detection
- Hands-on experience training and fine-tuning detection models
- Experience building OCR pipelines for label/packaging text extraction
- Strong Python skills with experience in OpenCV, image preprocessing, and augmentation techniques
- Production experience with multimodal LLM APIs for structured data extraction and validation
- Backend engineering: FastAPI, Pydantic v2, PostgreSQL, async Python

## Nice-to-Haves
- Experience with barcode/QR/UDI decoding and preprocessing strategies that improve decode rates
- MLOps experience: Docker, CI/CD, model versioning, A/B testing
- Workflow orchestration tools (Temporal, Prefect, Airflow)
- Healthcare or supply chain domain experience
- Familiarity with medical device identification standards (UDI, GS1)
