Computer Vision Engineer – C/Python | Robotics & Automation | Bay Area | Competitive
About My Client
My Client is a venture capital funded, stealth startup located in the Bay Area, CA. Founded by a group of engineers with a history of leading successful startups, they are looking for top talent to work on cutting-edge challenges at the intersection of mechanical design, software, robotics, computer vision, and deep learning. The scope of the company's mission is ambitious; they are looking for candidates who are motivated by the opportunity to create significant, lasting change in the world through their work. Job Description The Computer Vision Engineer will work closely with a team of software and mechanical engineers to develop and test computer vision software that performs robustly in a production environment and interfaces with robots and other automation equipment. While this role is intended for those interested in working on classical machine vision applications, there may be opportunities to work at the intersection of computer vision and deep learning as well. Experience in developing machine vision applications using a specific industrial camera’s software tools alone is not sufficient background for this role (e.g. Cognex, Keyence, etc.). Candidates must have experience in developing object-oriented software with C or similar. Internships or co-ops are available for college students as well. Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in computer science, electrical engineering, or similar
Extensive project experience in C, Python, or other object-oriented language
Experience working with computer vision hardware, libraries (such as OpenCV), and algorithms
Understanding of data structures and best coding practices
Idea generation and execution, mostly unsupervised
Hands-on aptitude, strong debugging and system analysis skills
Desire to work in an incredibly fast paced startup environment
Desired Qualifications
At least one year of industry experience, or 1-2 internships, focused on computer vision
Experience with stereo vision systems and sensor fusion (e.g. Intel RealSense cameras)
Expert in Python and C • Experience building multi-threaded and/or real-time systems
Experience writing production code and contributing to large production code bases
Knowledge of classical robotics theory and coordinate transformations
Basic understanding of communication protocols, networks, servers (TCP/IP, CAN, Modbus)
Experience with databases: SQL, MongoDB, Redis
Familiarity with both Windows and Linux operating systems
