Would you be open to visa sponsorship at all? I can work in France and Italy in the EU (have residence that lets me work in both countries) but not in Germany at the moment (this might change in about a year or so as I will get EU citizenship). But I have a fairly strong software + ML background and would love to join you.

Legitimate question: how do you expect an ML Engineer to have 10+ years of experience "building large-scale machine learning solutions and ML Ops practices"? ML in its current form (LLMs and modern vision models) only started being widely applied in companies about 5 to 7 years ago.

Is this remote for people outside of Canada well, or would you be open to visa sponsorship? I believe I am a fit but am not in Canada.

Are you looking specifically for developers that are seasoned in Rust? I like the potential for impact in this role, and I think I would meet the requirements for the Senior position (Master's degree + almost 6 years in tech now across software engineering, ML engineering and research positions), but my focus is Python and (to a lesser extent) C++. Wouldn't mind learning a new language for a job of course, but I would understand if you want developers who already did projects in the language for a while.

Interesting position for me and would love to apply, but I am currently living way too far from Paris (Japan), even though I can work in France without sponsorship. Would the company consider doing this part of the interview remotely as an exception if I managed to progress to that?

Would you be open to sponsoring visas for people outside of the US/Canada? I am currently a ML/Computer Vision Engineer at an institute in Japan, and have a fairly extensive (4+ year) experience as software developer, as well as experience in ML in actual companies, but do not have a visa that lets me work on those countries. If you are open for sponsorship, however, I would be very interested.

Sent you an e-mail. I believe those positions have a great fit with my current work and background, and I'd absolutely be willing to relocate to MA - the only issue being visa sponsorship, which you are offering already.

About me: Almost 6 years in tech, including 4 years in software engineering and 3 in ML/AI engineering and research. My focus is on ML and Data Science, but I’m open to exploring other areas.

As a software engineer, I released a Python game on Steam with an Indonesian team and built tools to streamline their development, launched three sports betting websites for Odds Scanner (a Maltese startup focused on sports betting), and developed a C++ desktop app for particle physics using OpenMP for parallel processing.

As an ML Engineer, I worked at SCOR, creating a document classification model and backend solution. Currently, I’m a Computer Vision Engineer at AIST, Japan, where I developed a SOTA depth estimation model for panoramic images and contributed to a spherical SLAM solution. I’m also working on building a real-time pose estimation solution in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University.

I’m seeking a ML/software engineering role with growth potential and a stronger focus on engineering, aiming to advance to a senior position in the next few years. I excel as a generalist who adapts quickly to new challenges and requirements while offering specialist expertise in ML and software engineering.

If you think I’m a fit for your project, feel free to contact me!
