Vizzia · Paris, A8, FR

Actively hiring Posted about 22 hours ago

Role overview

Mission

Joining Vizzia means becoming part of a fast-growing deeptech startup building innovative solutions for cities.

The AI team is currently working on two core products:

  • Waste: automated detection of illegal dumping, an existing product now scaling
  • Safety: an intelligent urban monitoring solution, built from scratch

As an Engineering Manager – Computer Vision, your mission is twofold:

build robust, production-grade computer vision systems,

grow and lead a team of engineers and data scientists, in a demanding, real-world product environment.

Your impact is direct on the quality, reliability, and real-world deployment of models in production.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the development and production deployment of computer vision models (detection, tracking, multimodal vision).
  • Ensure technical excellence across the full model lifecycle: data, training, evaluation, cloud and edge deployment.
  • Design and evolve the technical architecture of CV systems (vision stack, ML infrastructure, pipelines).
  • Coach, mentor, and support team members’ growth (1:1s, feedback, mentoring).
  • Work closely with the Head of AI and product teams to align technical vision with business goals.
  • Establish and maintain best practices: code quality, ML CI/CD, MLOps, monitoring, documentation.
  • Actively contribute to technology choices and stay up to date with advances in applied computer vision and AI.

Profile

Key skills (must have)

  • Strong expertise in applied computer vision, with hands-on production experience.
  • Excellent knowledge of Python and software engineering best practices.
  • Strong proficiency with PyTorch (or TensorFlow).
  • Solid experience with detection and tracking models (YOLO, R-CNN, DeepSORT, etc.).
  • Strong foundations in MLOps: pipelines, monitoring, versioning, deployment.
  • Ability to own and arbitrate complex technical topics at the product level.

Nice to have

  • Experience with Vision-Language Models (CLIP, Gemini, GPT-4).
  • Cloud experience (AWS, GCP).
  • Model optimization techniques: quantization, pruning, knowledge distillation.
  • Edge deployment experience (Jetson, ONNX, TensorRT).
  • Experience with large-scale multi-object tracking systems.

What Will Make the Difference

  • Strong technical leadership, with the ability to make structuring, long-term decisions.
  • Hands on capacity to participate in developing cutting edge computer vision products.
  • Excellent communication skills, able to align and bring a team along around technical and product choices.
  • A pragmatic mindset, focused on delivery and tangible product impact.
  • A strong appetite for startup environments and for building systems and teams from the ground up.
  • A genuine desire to help others grow and to build a strong, sustainable team over time.

Why Join Us?

  • Contribute to real-world AI projects with environmental impact.
  • Work within a multidisciplinary team (AI, Data, Software, Product).
  • A culture of trust and responsibility, where everyone contributes to collective progress.

Benefits

  • Hybrid work
  • “Contrat cadre” and RTT (between 8-12 per year depending on the number of public holidays in the current year)
  • A Mac or PC depending on your preferences
  • BSPCE
  • 60% coverage of meal vouchers worth €9 per worked day
  • / Sustainable mobility allowance
  • Mutuelle (Alan)
  • Offices located in central Paris (9th arrondissement)
  • Annual offsite with the whole team and plenty of company events
