What are the responsibilities and job description for the Applied Research Engineer position at Guidant Solutions Pvt. Ltd.?
About This Role
About Us
We are a specialized AI research organization focused on large-scale video data. We leverage robust data infrastructure, advanced video understanding, and diverse data sources to create high-quality datasets for next-generation AI models.
Video now dominates global internet traffic and is essential across industries such as digital content, communication, gaming, immersive technologies, and robotics. Our mission is to address a key challenge: providing access to high-quality training data.
We are a small, high-impact team partnered with leading AI organizations and experiencing strong growth. The company is well-funded, supported by top-tier investors, and scaling rapidly.
About The Role
As an Applied Research Engineer, you will design and build high-performance systems and large-scale pipelines for video understanding. You will address complex, ambiguous research problems that require creative, efficient solutions in multiple domains, including computer vision, audio processing, and text processing, and focus on optimizing model performance through techniques such as preprocessing, postprocessing, parallelization, pipelining, and inference optimization. There may also be opportunities for model fine-tuning.
This role is ideal for those who enjoy building end-to-end systems and translating real-world challenges into scalable technical solutions.
