Short Summary:
At Sword, we’re building AI to heal billions and unlock humanity’s full potential. We are pioneering AI Care, a new approach to healthcare focused on medical reasoning, safety, and real-time treatment.

Responsibilities:
- Own core computer vision models, from 3D human pose to statistical body modeling, taking them from prototype to production.
- Ship those models to run real-time in the cloud and on-device on tablets, owning the conversion and optimization in between.
- Own the data and code lifecycle behind them: training frameworks, annotation workflows, pipelines, auto-labeling, test sets, and taxonomy.
- Extend movement understanding into multimodal territory, combining it with language and reasoning.
- Design systems that run without you, automating the loops so the team's output scales past manual effort.
- Help grow the Computer Vision team by defining and promoting best practices.

Requirement:
- 5+ years solving complex problems with Computer Vision, with models shipped to production.
- Strong software engineering foundation across architecture, pipelines, MLOps, and the full model lifecycle.
- Deep, hands-on command of modern Computer Vision (transformers and convolutional models).
- A data-centric instinct: you cook your own data and treat the dataset as source code.
- Strong written, asynchronous communication.
- Self-direction and full ownership: you scope ambiguity into a plan and ship without being told.
- Fluency with PyTorch or JAX, and comfort picking up new languages and codebases.

Benefits:
- Health, dental and vision insurance
- Meal allowance
- Equity shares
- Remote work allowance
- Flexible working hours
- Work from home
- Discretionary vacation
- Snacks and beverages
