It may be easier to get a position as a more general purpose engineer (full stack or whatever you’re most comfortable in) with a team that has ML engineers, and work your way into the role you want from there.
I built a media pc with a 2tb drive for continuously uploading to backblaze, google photos, and an attached 2tb usb drive (it’s also a Plex server, which comes in handy for viewing the videos). I have google photos on my phones but mainly I periodically pull them off the phones and move them to the media pc, along with photos from my dslr.
Since my wife and I both have our own desktops it made sense to build the media pc to have a central place for photos and videos.

Just put a price on it and we'll pay it if it's worth the price.
I don't read a lot of books and this one is enormous but I did read it cover to cover. In its best moments it's genius, in its worst moments it's either dry or over my head. But it was a combination of delightful to read, educational, and mind blowing in parts.
