# Applied Machine Learning Engineer

About Us Quartermaster is building the world's most comprehensive maritime intelligence platform. Our SmartMast™ system transforms commercial and civilian vessels into a persistent, distributed sensing network-combining HD video, AI, radar, RF sensing, and AIS to deliver real-time maritime domain awareness at global scale. With 600+ sensors deployed across 25+ countries and more than 400,000 vessels identified outside of AIS, we are setting a new standard for what ocean surveillance and safety can look like. We are a mission-driven, high-velocity team building dual-use technology for defense agencies, coast guards, and commercial maritime operators. Job Description We are seeking a versatile and pragmatic Applied ML Engineer to contribute across a broad range of machine learning and perception tasks that power our edge-intelligent maritime systems. This role requires someone comfortable wearing many hats-from working with computer vision and sensor fusion models to building lightweight inference pipelines, designing experiments, and fine-tuning model behavior in production. You’ll work closely with a cross-functional team spanning hardware, software, and product to deliver real-wor
