About the Company

KO2's client is a rapidly expanding technology company based in Stroud, developing cutting-edge intelligent systems that sit at the intersection of embedded engineering and artificial intelligence. With strong investment and an exciting product roadmap, they are looking to bring on an Edge AI Engineer to help shape the next generation of smart, connected devices.

The Role

As an Edge AI Engineer, you will design and deploy AI models directly onto embedded hardware, working closely with multidisciplinary teams across hardware, firmware, and data science. This is a hands-on role where you will take solutions from concept through to real-world deployment. You will be required to achieve SC clearance in this role, if you have it already that is ideal.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and optimise AI/ML models for edge devices
• Integrate sensor data into Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)
• Design and implement Digital Signal Processing (DSP) pipelines
• Develop and maintain microcontroller software (C/C++ or similar)
• Work on mesh networking solutions for distributed device communication
• Collaborate with hardware engineers to ensure seamless system integration
• Optimise performance for low-power, resource-constrained environments

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong experience in Edge AI / Embedded Machine Learning
• Proven knowledge of integrating sensor data with CNNs
• Solid understanding of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques
• Knowledge or experience with mesh networking protocols
• Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Python
• Familiarity with embedded Linux is a plus
• Ability to hold SC clearance.

Desirable Skills

• Experience with TinyML or similar frameworks
• Knowledge of wireless communication protocols (BLE, Zigbee, LoRa, etc.)
• Experience deploying models using TensorFlow Lite or similar
