Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • Design, develop, and deploy custom deep learning models for computer vision analysis of dog and cat video footage to identify undiagnosed health conditions with specialist-level accuracy.
  • • Implement novel neural network architectures optimized for video processing, including CNNs, RNNs, Transformers, and Vision Transformers, using PyTorch.
  • • Collaborate with research and veterinary teams to translate cutting-edge academic papers into production-grade models that diagnose conditions from movement patterns and behavioral cues.
  • • Build and maintain robust backend services and APIs using Go, Java, or Rust to support video ingestion, model inference, and veterinary interface workflows.
  • • Develop full-stack applications with RESTful endpoints to enable veterinarians to upload, manage, and analyze pet videos via a secure, scalable web platform.
  • • Deploy, monitor, and optimize ML models and supporting infrastructure in cloud environments (AWS/GCP/Azure) using containerization technologies.
  • • Engineer end-to-end solutions from model training on GPU clusters to low-latency inference serving in live veterinary clinic settings.
  • • Contribute to the development of a proprietary video capture platform that standardizes data collection for consistent, high-quality model inputs.
  • • Ensure production systems meet reliability, scalability, and compliance standards for healthcare-adjacent applications handling sensitive pet health data.
  • • Work cross-functionally with product, veterinary, and data teams to prioritize model improvements based on real-world clinical feedback and diagnostic accuracy metrics.
  • • Iterate rapidly between research and engineering tasks—training state-of-the-art architectures one day and debugging HTTP endpoints the next.
  • • Maintain clean, testable, and documented codebases across ML, backend, and frontend components to support team scalability and model reproducibility.
  • • Continuously evaluate emerging research in animal behavior and computer vision to identify opportunities for model enhancement and new diagnostic capabilities.
  • • Participate in model validation processes in partnership with large animal health companies to verify diagnostic performance against veterinary specialist benchmarks.
  • • Contribute to the design of user-facing features that allow veterinarians to interpret model outputs and integrate them into clinical decision-making workflows.

🎯 Requirements

  • • 3+ years experience developing and deploying computer vision models
  • • Strong understanding of deep learning architectures for video processing (CNNs, RNNs, Transformers, ViTs)
  • • Proficiency in PyTorch
  • • Experience with backend development using Go, Java, Rust, or strongly typed languages
  • • Working knowledge of web server technologies and RESTful API design
  • • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure) and containerization

🏖️ Benefits

  • • Opportunity to build technology that improves animal welfare at scale, impacting hundreds of millions of pets worldwide
  • • Work with a team that has sustained over 35% annual growth for the past decade
  • • Collaborate with leading animal health companies and veterinary experts
  • • Remote work flexibility across the United States
  • • Join a mission-driven company recognized on the Inc. 5000 every year since 2018
  • • Engage in a dynamic, high-growth environment with exposure to both AI research and production engineering
