Job Description :
Role: Machine Learning Engineer Augmented Reality
Location:
Little Rock, AR
Experience: 12+ Years About the Role

We're looking for a seasoned Machine Learning Engineer who is passionate about building intelligent and immersive AR experiences. In this role, you'll architect and deliver advanced ML and computer vision solutions that bring real-world and digital environments together. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams-product managers, designers, and engineering teams-to transform innovative ideas into scalable, real-time AR applications.

If you enjoy solving complex technical challenges, pushing the boundaries of AR/VR/XR, and leading strategic ML initiatives, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead end-to-end development of machine learning models for AR-from research and prototyping to model training, optimization, and production deployment.

  • Build and optimize computer vision and deep learning models for object detection, tracking, segmentation, spatial mapping, and real-time scene understanding.

  • Develop real-time inference pipelines for mobile and edge devices (iOS, Android, AR glasses, and XR hardware).

  • Work with technologies such as 3D reconstruction, SLAM, scene mapping, gesture recognition, and sensor fusion.

  • Integrate ML models into AR platforms including ARCore, ARKit, Unity, Unreal Engine, or custom XR frameworks.

  • Continuously improve performance, latency, accuracy, and overall user experience for AR workloads.

  • Provide mentorship and technical leadership while driving ML best practices and architecture decisions.

  • Collaborate on roadmap planning and contribute to overall technology strategy.

Required Skills & Experience
  • 12+ years of experience in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision.

  • Strong expertise in building ML models for AR/VR/XR or other real-time interactive 3D applications.

  • Solid hands-on experience with CNNs, RNNs, Transformers, 3D CV models, Diffusion models, and Generative AI.

  • Advanced programming skills in Python and experience with frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, OpenCV, ONNX.

  • Experience in model optimization (quantization, pruning) and edge deployment.

  • Practical exposure to SLAM, pose estimation, optical flow, point clouds, LiDAR, and depth sensors.

  • Experience integrating ML models into Unity/Unreal is a strong advantage.

  • Knowledge of GPU acceleration and CUDA-based optimization.

  • Experience deploying ML systems using MLOps tooling (MLflow, Kubeflow, Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes).

  • Excellent communication, team collaboration, and leadership skills.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Master's or PhD in Computer Science, AI/ML, Robotics, or related field.

  • Experience working with ARCore, ARKit, Vision Pro, Meta Quest, HoloLens, or similar platforms.

  • Cloud experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure and familiarity with real-time streaming data pipelines.
