Staff Algorithm Engineer

We are looking for a Staff Algorithm Engineer to join our core Algorithm team - a high-autonomy group responsible for the algorithm and ML systems at the heart of 4M's mapping engine. This is a role for engineers who think in systems, bring cutting-edge computer vision and algorithmic thinking to ambitious real-world challenges, and own problems end-to-end with an entrepreneurial drive.

In the AI era, being a strong engineer means more than writing great code. It means operating as both an architect and a team lead - designing the solution with clarity, then guiding AI agents to execute it at a level and speed that wasn't possible before. We are building a culture where this is the norm, and we're looking for someone who is excited to work and grow in that direction.

You will work across computer vision and algorithm disciplines - researching solutions, designing experiments, and delivering production-grade implementations - while collaborating closely with data engineering and product teams.

What You'll Do



Research and implement novel computer vision and algorithmic solutions for challenging real-world problems - spanning perception, learning, optimization, and graph-based reasoning.
Own algorithm quality end-to-end: design experiments, evaluate results, and drive iterations until production reliability targets are met.
Work across disciplines - sharing models, methods, and insights with algorithm, data engineering, and product teams.
Monitor production model health proactively; identify degradation early and lead remediation efforts.
Integrate AI tools into your workflow and grow into the role of architect and team lead - designing the solution, then directing agents to build it.
Raise the bar on the team's technical culture through code reviews, knowledge-sharing, and rigorous algorithmic thinking.
