Senior Engineer - AI/ML

Meet the Team
The Software Research & Development Team in Hyderabad is responsible for developing next-generation software technologies for our IoT portfolio, including Zigbee, Thread, Matter, Wi-Fi, proprietary radio software, and hardware modeling.
We are expanding our AI/ML software engineering team in Hyderabad to enable smarter IoT devices by running machine learning (ML) algorithms directly on the edge. These algorithms power applications such as anomaly detection, wake-word recognition, and image classification. Our mission is to bring advanced ML capabilities to resource-constrained devices using cutting-edge optimization techniques and hardware acceleration.

As an AI/ML Engineer, you will:

• Collaborate with engineers and architects to design and implement embedded ML solutions for Silicon Labs’ wireless microcontrollers.
• Integrate third-party ML frameworks (e.g., ExecuTorch, CMSIS-NN, CMSIS-DSP) into our embedded software stack.
• Develop optimization techniques to improve model performance on memory- and energy-constrained devices.
• Contribute to tools for ML model conversion, deployment, and evaluation.
• Build demo applications and reference examples to showcase edge ML capabilities.
• Create technical documentation and training resources for internal and external developers.
• Apply best practices in embedded development, debugging, and ML model deployment.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 4+ years of professional experience in embedded systems software development.
• Proficiency in C/C++, Python, and Git.
• Strong understanding of embedded systems development, debugging tools, and cross-compilation.
• Exposure to machine learning algorithms, including deep neural networks and classical ML methods.
• Knowledge of ARM microcontrollers (MCUs).
• Familiarity with digital signal processing (DSP) and embedded ML frameworks like Tensorflow Lite for Microcontrollers (LiteRT), ExecuTorch, CMSIS-NN, or CMSIS-DSP
• Strong analytical and communication skills.
• Eagerness to learn and grow in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
• Nice to Have:
• Experience with ML model training, quantization, and deployment pipelines.
• Familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS).
• Knowledge of TensorFlow and PyTorch.
• Experience with Linux and using the command line.
• Familiarity with project planning and documentation tools like JIRA and Confluence
