Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of experience in embedded systems engineering, edge computing, or on-device machine learning.
  • Expertise in at least one edge ML inference framework (TensorFlow Lite, ONNX Runtime, llama.cpp, etc.).
  • Experience optimizing and quantizing models for CPU-only inference.
  • Understanding of memory management, real-time data streams, and concurrent processing.
  • Proficiency in C++, Rust, or Python with tight memory management.
  • Experience with embedded Linux or equivalent OS environments (ARM-based, limited RAM, no GPU).
  • Familiarity with real-time data ingestion from hardware interfaces or industrial systems.
  • Strong written communication skills for documentation.
  • Experience in consulting or client-facing project environments preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Assess target edge hardware against the requirements of an on-device inference loop.
  • Evaluate candidate edge inference frameworks for CPU-only SLM deployment.
  • Assess real-time data ingestion feasibility from operational subsystem interfaces.
  • Design and evaluate local data store options for the on-device SLM context.
  • Build a constrained feasibility demonstrator on laptop or workstation hardware.
  • Implement a small number of scoped interaction flows in the demonstrator.
  • Collaborate with the AI/ML Architect on SLM selection and inference pipeline design.
  • Collaborate with the AWS Solutions Architect on the edge-to-cloud data channel.
  • Document hardware assessment findings and architectural trade-offs as ADRs.
  • Communicate technical constraints and feasibility findings to stakeholders.
