Full company description
Nexxa builds specialized AI for industrial engineering in heavy project industries. Project industries like railroads, energy, construction, mining and others rely on highly educated industrial engineers to function. Today, industrial engineers have to do their work in a fragmented, sometimes outdated technology stack. Nexxa delivers AI agents that understand the technical work and augment the engineer in their most critical, but repetitive work. Our vision is to build an AI system that works with the engineer from scratch and accelerates engineering productivity without any pre-training.

Role Overview
We are looking for an AI Vision Engineer to help design, build, and deploy next-generation computer vision systems across a diverse set of real-world industrial applications.
This role is ideal for someone with a strong foundation in Computer Vision and Machine Learning who is excited about working across the full vision stack, including classical and deep-learning-based CV, vision-language models (VLMs), multimodal reasoning, and real-time inference at the edge and in the cloud.
You will work closely with our AI and engineering teams to develop production-ready vision solutions, improve model performance, and help shape the next generation of intelligent visual systems.
What You'll Do
Design, train, evaluate, and deploy computer vision models for real-world industrial applications.
Build and optimize CV pipelines for tasks such as object detection, segmentation, classification, OCR, tracking, and visual understanding.
Develop and fine-tune vision-language models (VLMs) for multimodal reasoning, visual question answering, and document understanding.
Design and optimize real-time inference pipelines for deployment on edge devices and in the cloud.
Build scalable data pipelines for image and video collection, annotation, augmentation, training, and evaluation.
Fine-tune and evaluate open-source vision and multimodal foundation models using modern training and inference frameworks.
Develop robust evaluation frameworks and benchmarks to measure model accuracy, robustness, latency, and business impact.
Optimize models for production constraints, including quantization, pruning, and hardware-accelerated inference.
Collaborate with product, engineering, and research teams to translate business requirements into technical vision solutions.
Contribute to architecture decisions, technical design reviews, and AI/CV best practices.
Stay current with the latest advancements in computer vision, multimodal AI, and autonomous systems.
