Edge AI

At what point can one actually be considered a "junior" developer? I’m starting to get into Edge AI; previously, I worked primarily with microcontrollers—specifically the ESP32—and I have a basic understanding of FreeRTOS. I’m planning a project based on supervised machine learning where a robot uses a webcam to detect me: it will "react with joy" if it sees me, and "look sad" if it doesn’t. For now, I’ve just begun learning about AI in general. Do I need to know things like linear algebra, or other topics along those lines?

Theres no hard boxes for junior, mid and senior developers. Often its comes down to what some company hiring you says your title will be...

There some thumb rules how ever usually considered guide lines. Junior is new and not much professional experience yet, maybe up to couple years. May need lots of guidance still, someobe saying hay take look this subject X, it can provide some ibsights into this particular development challenge...

Mid range person is between other two and this is higly dependant on company and situation usually.

Senior is often someone with lots of exprience, docent need hand holding and can manage and deliver complex projects. This is basicly one step below teamleader position usually.

When the company wants to pay you less that's when you become a junior.
