About the role

Senior Computer Vision Engineer to design, implement, and optimize the perception pipeline for autonomous counter-sUAS platforms, focusing on low-latency, high-frame-rate processing to track small, fast objects.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and Implement: Develop the entire embedded CV pipeline using high-performance Python and C++.
  • Target Tracking & Sensor Fusion: Design and deploy robust multi-object tracking and sensor fusion algorithms for high-fidelity state estimation of fast-moving targets.
  • Object Detection: Utilize real-time models (e.g., YOLO) and CNNs optimized for speed.
  • Embedded Optimization: Optimize code for low-latency performance on resource-constrained NVIDIA Jetson environments using libraries like TensorRT and TFLite.
  • Geometric Vision: Apply calibration, rectification, and 3D geometry to translate 2D footage into accurate 3D coordinates for fire control.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with robotics teams to ensure perception data supports autonomous decision-making.

Qualifications

  • Programming: Strong background in C++ (for performance) or Python.
  • SLAM/Localization: Deep expertise in VIO, VO, and SLAM frameworks for real-time state estimation.
  • Libraries: Proficiency in OpenCV and image-processing modules in PyTorch or TensorFlow.
  • Deployment: Experience with DNN inference libraries (e.g., TensorRT, TFLite) for edge deployment.
  • Architecture: Hands-on experience building embedded CV systems for real-time applications involving small, fast objects.
  • Geometric Vision: Deep understanding of camera calibration and 3D geometry.
  • Compliance: US Citizenship and the ability to pass a background check.
