About HTN:
HomeTeam Live Technologies Inc. is a Canadian-headquartered live sports streaming company operating across Canada, the United States & beyond. We install and operate camera infrastructure at venues so that fans, families, scouts, and alumni can watch games that would otherwise never be broadcast - independent baseball, arena football, junior and youth hockey, college athletics, and school division sport. Our product suite also includes Highlight IQ, our AI-powered highlight generation platform.
Job Description:
As a Senior AI Engineer at HomeTeam Network, you'll be at the forefront of developing solutions that power our AI-complete sports broadcasting platform. You'll work on cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning systems that automatically track players, detect game events, and generate broadcast-ready content in real-time.
Job Type: Full-time
Hybrid: For Business reasons we must have someone based in Saskatchewan! Likely a monthly meeting in Saskatoon.
What You'll Do:
- Implement and optimize computer vision models for real-time player tracking, action recognition, and game state detection in sports video
- Build ML inference pipelines using ONNX Runtime and TensorRT for GPU-accelerated model deployment
- Develop multiprocess video processing pipelines for high-throughput RTMP/RTSP/SRT streams
- Integrate AI systems with AWS infrastructure (ECS, Lambda, Step Functions, EventBridge) and cloud deployment workflows
- Optimize real-time video processing performance using FFmpeg, OpenCV, and CUDA
- Deploy and monitor AI models in cloud‑native production using cloud platforms and Weights & Biases for end‑to‑end observability
- Create testing frameworks to validate model accuracy and pipeline reliability
- Collaborate with DevOps on infrastructure-as-code using Terraform for AWS and GCP deployments
- Research and implement emerging AI technologies to improve our platform
Required Skills & Experience:
- 3-5 years of software development experience (AI/ML focus preferred)
- Strong Python programming skills with experience in:
○ Deep learning inference frameworks (ONNX Runtime, TensorRT)
○ Computer vision libraries (OpenCV, torchvision)
○ Data processing and numerical computing (NumPy, Pandas)
○ Multiprocessing and concurrent programming
- Understanding of ML fundamentals and neural network architectures
- Experience with Git and collaborative development practices
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- Ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues in production systems
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills
Nice-to-Have Qualifications:
- Experience with video streaming protocols (RTMP, RTSP, SRT) and FFmpeg
- Knowledge of real-time system optimization and low-latency processing
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS ECS, Lambda, Step Functions, or GCP equivalents)
- Understanding of MLOps practices and model deployment pipelines
- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform)
- Experience with experiment tracking tools (Weights & Biases, MLflow)
- Published research in computer vision or machine learning
