Senior ML Engineer, Multi-Sensor Modeling

Responsibilities

• Develop algorithms that improve the speed, accuracy, and reliability of Gridware’s automated hazard detection systems
• Work with multimodal time-series and spatial sensor data across diverse sampling rates and noise characteristics.
• Design models that are robust, interpretable, and deployable in production environments.
• Live in the data; help curate & share strategic & well-defined datasets that help solve our highest-value challenges
• Explore advanced approaches such as graph-based learning for grid topology reasoning, geospatial modeling and localization and multimodal fusion across acoustic, magnetic, vibration, electrical, and visual signals

Production Engineering

• Write clean, scalable, well-tested Python code that integrates into a large shared codebase.
• Build end-to-end ML pipelines including data processing, feature extraction, training, evaluation, and deployment.
• Optimize models for performance, reliability, and real-world constraints.
• Collaborate on infrastructure for model monitoring, validation, and continuous improvement.

Collaboration & Communication

• Translate complex analyses into clear insights for engineers, operators, and leadership.
• Frame solutions to ambiguous, open-ended problems to achieve buy-in from various stakeholders by focusing on the business impact of your projects
• Communicate uncertainty, tradeoffs, and model behavior effectively.
• Partner cross-functionally with software, data engineering, product, and event-reporting teams.
• Help shape technical direction and best practices for ML at Gridware. This includes exemplifying standards for experiment tracking, model versioning, reproducibility, and lifecycle management.

Required Skills

• 5+ years of experience in machine learning, signal processing, or applied physics in production environments.
• Strong programming skills in Python and experience contributing to large, shared codebases.
• Experience working within modern software stacks, including cloud platforms, containerization, and CI/CD workflows
• Excellent written and verbal communication, especially explaining data and models clearly.

Bonus Skills

• Experience with Graph Neural Networks or learning over physical/topological systems.
• Familiarity with power systems, embedded sensing, or edge ML.
• Proven experience with time-series modeling and noisy real-world sensor data.
• Experience with multimodal learning or sensor fusion.
• Track record of technical leadership or mentoring.
