Major League Baseball (MLB) | New York City | Computer Vision Engineer | Full Time
https://grnh.se/eab3f8e61
We’re looking for an expert in Machine Learning and/or Computer Vision to create the code powering baseball experiences. The Baseball Data team is tasked with analyzing data captured on major league fields. With the launch of Statcast in 2015, MLB began capturing ball and player movements for each and every play. This role will involve combining our various data sources with video in near real-time to further our understanding of what is happening on the field. Potential projects involve analyzing limb movements of players, tracking the ball and player as they move across the diamond, detecting fielder shifts, scene detection and combing tracking data with LIDAR scans to validate the system.
Core Responsibilities:
* Develop models for detecting elements in video, image, audio and data
* Brainstorm, discuss, and drive new advanced technology solutions for MLBAM products
* Build scalable deep learning algorithms
* Influence the innovation of products used by millions of users worldwide
* Present and explain complex models to non-technical stakeholders
