[Hiring] Applied Scientist @Apptad, Inc.

Role Description

We are hiring Applied Scientists (1 Lead + 2 ICs) to design, build, and optimise GenAI-driven multi-modal pipelines for detecting contextual moments in live video streams. This role focuses on prompt engineering, multimodal inference, and model optimisation using foundation models (Claude, Nova, Bedrock) to maximise detection accuracy.

• Design and optimise prompt engineering strategies for foundation models
• Build pipelines for multi-modal inference (video + transcript + audio)
• Detect and classify custom moments and contextual events
• Develop reusable frameworks for:
  • Moment detection templates
  • Structured metadata generation
• Fine-tune prompts and configurations to improve:
  • Accuracy
  • Precision across moment types
• Integrate GenAI outputs into:
  • Structured JSON metadata
  • Downstream systems and pipelines
• Work with AWS services such as:
  • Amazon Bedrock (GenAI models)
  • Lambda
  • S3
  • Kinesis (data pipeline)
• Collaborate with QA team for output validation and optimisation
• Support production rollout and continuous improvement

Qualifications

• Strong experience in:
  • Prompt engineering for foundation models (Claude, Nova, etc.)
  • Multi-modal AI systems (vision + NLP)
• Hands-on experience with:
  • LLM inference and optimisation
  • Structured outputs (JSON generation and validation)
• Strong Python programming and data pipeline skills
• Familiarity with AWS cloud stack: Bedrock, Lambda, S3, analytics pipeline
• Experience in working with:
  • Video analytics / media AI workflows
  • Real-time or near real-time systems
