Senior Machine Learning Researcher
Tocaro Blue
Principal research scientist job in Birmingham, AL
Transform Maritime Intelligence with Cutting-Edge AI/ML
Are you an experienced machine learning researcher ready to push the limits of AI in one of the toughest domains-maritime autonomy? At Tocaro Blue, your expertise in designing, training, and deploying custom ML models will directly advance our foundational perception stack, ProteusCore.
As a Senior ML Researcher, you will be the lead architect of Radar (and secondary EO/IR) models for object detection, semantic segmentation, and tracking. You'll design algorithms capable of distinguishing vessels, land, shoreline constructions, wakes, and markers in dynamic maritime environments where off-the-shelf models fall short.
Your work will fuel products used by:
· Defense customers developing USVs/ASVs for the U.S. Navy.
· Commercial OEMs bringing advanced marine ADAS and autopilot features to market.
This role is an opportunity to define the ML foundations of maritime autonomy-where perception evolves from situational awareness, to navigation assistance, to full autonomy.
What You'll Pioneer
Core ML and Autonomy Innovation
· Invent and refine custom deep learning architectures for Radar and EO/IR imagery, with an emphasis on semantic segmentation and temporal tracking, not just detection.
· Develop multi-stage ML pipelines (context + characteristic models, segmentation + classification) tailored to low-SNR Radar returns.
· Train models on proprietary large-scale datasets (millions of Radar samples and camera sequences) with design-of-experiment methods for data collection and annotation.
· Optimize and deploy models to resource-constrained edge hardware (CPU-only and ARM64 platforms), including C++ inference layers.
· Advance fusion-aware ML models that integrate Radar with EO/IR, AIS, and cartography for robust classification in GPS-denied or cluttered environments.
· Collaborate with fusion and autonomy engineers to ensure ML outputs integrate seamlessly into multi-target tracking and SLAM pipelines.
· Contribute to ML-Ops workflows: data management, large-scale training, continuous integration of new field data, and automated evaluation pipelines.
What Sets You Apart
Essential Qualifications
· Advanced degree (MS/PhD) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or related field.
· 7+ years applying machine learning and signal processing to real-world dynamic systems (graduate research counts if directly applicable).
· Demonstrated mastery of semantic segmentation and object classification models, ideally applied to non-vision sensor modalities.
· Expert-level Python skills with ML frameworks (TensorFlow/Keras, PyTorch, or equivalent).
Preferred Expertise
· Track record of developing ML models beyond standard YOLO-style detectors, particularly for segmentation of noisy or sparse data (Radar, sonar, or medical imaging).
· Strong background in computer vision and temporal modeling (CNNs, transformers, RNNs for sequential sensor data).
· Experience deploying ML to embedded/edge platforms with optimized C++ inference.
· Knowledge of marine, automotive, or aerial robotics systems.
· Contributions to large-scale ML data pipelines: annotation strategies, dataset balancing, simulation-to-real transfer.
· Passion for pushing the boundaries of AI in GPS-denied, cluttered, and low-visibility environments.
Why Tocaro Blue?
Competitive Compensation & Growth
· $132,000-$160,000 base salary with potential equity in a rapidly growing company.
· Comprehensive benefits: 401(k) with 4% company matching, full health/dental/vision, life & disability insurance, generous PTO.
· Continuous learning via conferences, training, and professional growth.
Innovation-First Culture
· Direct impact on defining the AI backbone of maritime autonomy.
· Work on problems unsolved in automotive AI: Radar segmentation, maritime multi-object tracking, sensor fusion in GPS-denied waters.
· Collaborative environment with elite engineers and researchers.
· Hands-on field validation through monthly data collection trips at our Pensacola test facility.
· A culture that balances innovation with personal growth.
Equal Opportunity & Eligibility
Tocaro Blue, LLC is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
Individual offers are based are made based on skill and experience, geographic location, as well as role, responsibility, and leadership within the company, and other due diligence. Our hiring team will try to determine whether each candidate fits the job description and may choose, at their discretion, to redirect a candidate to another job offering that is more appropriate.

Staff Applied Scientist
Relativity Oda 4.7
Principal research scientist job in Alabama
Posting Type
Hyrbid
At Relativity, we're building a world-class Applied Science team to push the boundaries of intelligent systems in the legal domain. We're looking for a Staff Applied Scientist to join our team.
Agentic AI-systems that perceive, think, and act-is not a far-off vision for us. It's already embedded in how Relativity aiR makes document review faster, more accurate, and more scalable than ever before. Our models interpret legal intent, reason across documents, cite their decisions, and automate thousands of hours of work-freeing legal professionals to focus on what matters most.
This is your chance to contribute to the next generation of applied AI in legal tech: to build intelligent, safe, and defensible systems that scale human capability.
Why This Work Matters
Our Applied Science team are the brains behind Relativity aiR, the most scalable workflows in legal tech-automating decision-making in document review, privilege detection, and case strategy. These aren't just LLM wrappers; they're intelligent systems that reason, cite their thought process, and operate at scale across millions of documents.
We're solving problems that matter in one of the most high-stakes domains out there. Our customers rely on us to build systems they can trust-systems that are auditable, defensible, and responsible by design. You'll help us extend those systems, validating AI decisions statistically, simplifying complexity for users, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible while keeping experts in the loop.
Why Relativity?
We're not just building products-we're building a better future for legal work. Our Applied Science team is 20 strong and growing. You'll be joining a thoughtful, kind, and technically excellent group who value impact, learning, and trust. This role is a chance to lead, contribute, and grow in a supportive and intellectually rich environment.
Job Description and Requirements
What You'll Do
Write code that solves real customer problems and scales cleanly… Built to be easy to ship, operate, and maintain.
Collaborate with fellow Applied Scientists… And with our Engineers, Product Managers, Designers, and Customers.
Design and execute statistically sound experiments… Then automate them into reusable benchmarks.
Rapidly build AI- and ML-powered prototypes… Then turn them into reliable, scalable production models.
Select the right model for each task… Be it a decision tree or a frontier LLM.
Stay grounded in evidence… And open to change.
Who You Are
6-10+ years of professional experience in ML, Applied Science, or a closely related area.
Hold a Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Math) OR equivalent professional experience.
Proven ability to move fast without breaking everything: you know how to prototype-and how to simplify for production.
Comfortable reading and applying research; skeptical enough to validate the results.
Experienced with a range of modeling techniques-from classic ML to large-scale generative models.
Familiar with modern MLOps tooling (e.g., containers, workflow orchestration, telemetry, deployment patterns and experimentation).
Capable communicator, able to explain complex ideas to technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.
Humble, curious, adaptable. Not afraid of failure. Not afraid to lead. Not afraid to ask questions. End-to-end owner - able to understand and learn about our problem space, devise solutions and bring them to market alongside our engineering, product and support organizations
Strong Python Programmer, experienced in various data and machine learning libraries (e.g. numpy, pytorch, scikit-learn, pyspark)
Relativity is committed to competitive, fair, and equitable compensation practices.
This position is eligible for total compensation which includes a competitive base salary, an annual performance bonus, and long-term incentives.
