VD.B
Open to offers

Job Overview

Dear Freelancer,

I'm looking for a technical lead that can help and work as a sound board for a prototype development.

I am building an early-stage system focused on analyzing audio and video data.

The goal is not theoretical AI, but a working prototype that:



  • processes audio/video input
  • detects speech and activity
  • derives simple patterns
  • produces structured output for further analysis

I’m looking for a strong technical thinker who can:



  • translate high-level ideas into concrete system architecture
  • make pragmatic technical decisions (tools, libraries, structure)
  • break down work into clear tasks for a developer
  • review and guide implementation
  • focus on getting something working (perfection comes in steps)


Your role is to:


  • define the system architecture (input → processing → output)
  • select and validate tools (e.g. Whisper, diarization, OpenCV, etc.)
  • structure the pipeline and data flow
  • write clear technical tasks/specs
  • guide and review the work of 1 developer (offshore)
  • act as a sparring partner for technical decisions

Profile



  • strong experience with Python backend and/or data pipelines
  • experience building real systems (not only notebooks or experiments)
  • experience with APIs (FastAPI / Flask)
  • experience with audio/video processing is a strong plus
  • familiarity with integrating AI tools (not necessarily training models)
  • independent, critical, and structured thinker 

Practical



  • freelance / part-time (5–10 hours per week)
  • remote
  • start asap

This is not a pure development role. I’m specifically looking for someone who can think, structure, and guide, not just execute.


To apply please include:


  • relevant experience (with concrete examples)
  • how you would approach building such a pipeline (short, structured)
  • availability

Thanks and talk to you soon !
