Company Description

Get to know the Team

The Data Science (Geo Vision) team focuses on improving maps and building map-based intelligence, including localization, routing, and traffic forecasting. We use Computer Vision, Information Retrieval, and Large Language Models (LLMs) to process diverse signals like images, text, and GPS probes. We are looking for an engineer who excels at building the scalable software foundations that power these advanced models.

Job Description

The Data Science (Geo Vision) team improves Grab's maps and builds map-based intelligence (localization, routing, travel-time, traffic forecasting) using computer vision and deep learning on images, video, and GPS signals.

As a Data Scientist, you'll focus on bringing computer vision models to embedded/edge platforms for map creation. You will be working onsite and reporting to the Head of Data Science based in Cluj.

What you'll work on

Help adapt and improve CV models (detection, segmentation, tracking) to run on resource-constrained edge devices.
Apply model compression — quantization, pruning, knowledge distillation — to shrink models while preserving accuracy.
Profile on-device performance (latency, memory, power) and help build efficient inference pipelines.
Support training and evaluation, and use AI agents/tooling within the team's quality guidelines.

What you'll gain: hands-on experience taking deep learning models to on-device deployment, plus skills in model optimization and real-time edge performance.

Qualifications

Pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
Familiarity with Python and some of: PyTorch/TensorFlow, NumPy, OpenCV, and scikit-learn.
Solid ML and deep learning / computer vision fundamentals.
Interest in or exposure to embedded systems, edge deployment, or model optimization (quantization, pruning, distillation) — a strong plus.
Proficiency in English
