Senior AI Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design and ship local (on-device) AI models that run efficiently across gaming, biosensing, and peripheral applications.
• Work at the intersection of machine learning and real-time systems — taking models from prototype to optimized, production-grade inference that runs on the player's machine and our hardware, with tight latency and resource budgets.
• Implement and optimize AI/ML models for on-device inference in latency-sensitive gaming and peripheral contexts.
• Build and integrate models that process biosignal and sensor data (e.g. from peripherals and wearables) in real time.
• Optimize models for performance and footprint — quantization, pruning, and acceleration across CPU/GPU/NPU targets.
• Write efficient, production-quality C++ for the runtime and inference layers of our SDK.
• Collaborate with platform, haptics, and audio teams to expose AI capabilities to game studios through clean, well-documented APIs.
• Profile, benchmark, and continuously improve inference speed, memory use, and energy efficiency.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering, applied ML, or a closely related role.
• Proficiency in C++ (required) — comfortable writing performant, maintainable code in a real-time or systems context.
• Hands-on experience deploying machine learning models, ideally on-device / edge rather than purely cloud.
• Familiarity with ML frameworks and runtimes (e.g. PyTorch, ONNX Runtime, TensorRT, llama.cpp / GGML, or similar).
• Understanding of model optimization techniques (quantization, pruning, distillation) and the trade-offs they involve.
• Strong fundamentals in performance profiling and working within constrained compute/latency budgets.
