Data Scientist needed – Computer Vision & AI Solutions

About the Role We're looking for a Data Scientist with a strong foundation in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Image Processing who enjoys solving real-world problems from start to finish. This is a hands-on role that goes beyond building models. Depending on the project, you'll be involved in understanding customer requirements, designing technical solutions, preparing datasets, training and evaluating models, deploying solutions, and collaborating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. We're a small, fast-moving team, so every team member has a meaningful impact. We're looking for someone who takes ownership, thinks independently, and is comfortable driving tasks forward with minimal supervision. What You'll Do -Designing and developing Machine Learning and Computer Vision solutions. -Preparing, organizing, and managing datasets for training and evaluation. -Training, testing, and improving Machine Learning models. -Deploying models into production environments. -Monitoring model performance and identifying opportunities for improvement. -Investigating technical challenges and proposing practical solutions. -Understanding customer requirements and translating them into technical implementations. -Participating in technical discussions with customers and internal team members when needed. -Creating clear documentation for datasets, models, workflows, and project decisions. -Collaborating with developers, customers, and other stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle. -Continuously improving workflows, processes, and solution quality. Required Skills -Strong Python programming skills. -Basic SQL knowledge. -Good understanding of Machine Learning fundamentals. -Experience or strong interest in Computer Vision and Image Processing. -Experience working with common ML frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar. -Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. -Excellent written and verbal English communication skills. -Ability to explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. -Strong organizational and documentation skills. -Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks effectively. What We're Looking For We're not simply looking for someone who can complete assigned tasks—we're looking for someone who takes ownership. The ideal candidate: -Takes responsibility for delivering solutions, not just writing code. -Thinks critically and independently. -Identifies problems before they're pointed out. -Proactively asks questions when requirements are unclear. -Looks for solutions instead of waiting for instructions. -Is comfortable making technical decisions and justifying them. -Communicates clearly and keeps stakeholders informed. -Is curious, adaptable, and eager to learn. -Takes pride in producing high-quality work. Working Hours -We start at approximately 30 hours per week -Flexible working hours. Project Duration -Initial paid trial period of 1 month -Long-term collaboration based on performance. Why Join Us? -Work on challenging AI and Computer Vision projects with real-world impact. -Be involved in the entire project lifecycle—from idea to deployment. -High level of ownership and autonomy. -Flexible working environment. -Opportunity for long-term collaboration and professional growth. -Small team where your ideas and contributions genuinely matter. How to Apply Instead of sending a generic application or simply summarizing your work history, we'd like to understand how you think, solve problems, and what you can contribute to our team. Please submit a cover letter that tells us: -What Computer Vision, Image Processing, or Machine Learning projects you've worked on and your specific contributions. -What technical challenges you've solved and what responsibilities you personally owned. -A project you're particularly proud of and why. -How you approach unfamiliar problems or situations where requirements are incomplete. -What you believe you would bring to our team. -Why you believe you're the right fit for this role. -We place a high value on ownership, initiative, and independent thinking. We're looking for people who enjoy solving problems, taking responsibility, asking thoughtful questions, and continuously improving both themselves and the projects they work on. If you're someone who likes being trusted with meaningful responsibility and making a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
