Driving internal ML roadmap, coaching and training for machine learning engineers; creating standards, tooling and infrastructure requirements for reliable, repeatable and reproducible experiments

I am currently leading a medium-sized team tasked with generating large amounts of realistic virtual data for machine learning applications at scale.As a team technical lead I have worked the past years mainly on innovation projects for automotive interior monitoring. My main area of expertise is 3D sensing using Time-of-Flight cameras, but I have worked with other 3D camera technologies and RGB, NIR, FIR cameras as well. Solutions ranged from traditional image processing techniques to state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms.
