Job Description

Vantor Inc. is hiring a Machine Learning Engineer to help transform raw satellite imagery into trusted, well-labeled data and to build machine learning models from that data. This onsite role in Westminster, CO focuses on geospatial data pipelines with data lineage and versioning, as well as production inference pipelines that reduce manual labeling effort and improve labeling decisions.

What you’ll do

Build systems that convert raw satellite imagery into trusted, well-labeled data.
Develop machine learning algorithms that use that data to produce models.
Collaborate with internal domain experts, external annotation partners, and Vantor’s Machine Learning and Software Engineering teams to design robust, scalable, low-latency solutions.
Create pipelines for large geospatial imagery and metadata, including sensor, acquisition, and geolocation attributes, ensuring reliable movement of data between annotation, storage, and model training systems.
Track data lineage and versioning so labels can be traced back to their source image, guideline version, and annotator.
Develop, adapt, and deploy models that propose annotations to reduce manual labeling effort and turnaround time.
Build and operate production inference pipelines.
Evaluate model performance against labeled data.
Use model feedback to determine which imagery should be prioritized for labeling next.
Ship a reliable data service, train and deploy computer vision models, and connect both into a continuously improving system.

What you bring

5+ years of relevant experience in machine learning engineering, data engineering, backend software engineering, or a closely related technical role.
Hands-on experience training, fine-tuning, or adapting deep learning models using a modern ML framework.
Experience deploying machine learning models into production, including building batch or real-time inference pipelines and managing model versions.
Hands-on experience building and operating services on a major cloud platform, including managed compute, databases, storage, and identity and access management.
Experience building and operating workflow orchestration for data or ML pipelines.
Experience owning containerized services, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code.
Proven ability to support production systems, including debugging, observability, secure configuration, and incident response.
Strong Python application development skills.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, Geospatial Science or GIS, Remote Sensing, or a related discipline, or equivalent demonstrated experience.
