Computer Vision Algorithm Researcher, Senior

Who we are :

We are an intrapreneurial team creating innovative solutions and Ai technologies for the transportation & logistics, warehouse, retail, and healthcare markets. These “first of a kind” solutions are helping retail managers improve their store operations & better serve their customers and are helping logistic managers enhance the efficiency of their operations.

We focus on advanced development and application of emerging edge sensing, artificial intelligence, and workflow optimization technologies in innovative end-to-end system prototypes to solve real-world problems and advance these systems and Ai technologies into Zebra businesses.

About you :

As a Computer Vision and Ai Researcher you will have a unique opportunity to use your creativity both to understand the latest cutting-edge research and to tailor it for real-world applications. You will face a variety of challenges and will have access to the best hardware to do the job.

We are focusing on leveraging AI to help solve real-world problems on real-world data. This means embracing noise and complexity, both at the data level and at the methodological level. Your work will span from real-world data handling to the most advanced methods such as transfer learning, generative models, reinforcement learning, etc., with a focus on understanding quickly and experimenting even faster. You will collaborate closely both with software developers and research scientists, wielding the tools of both. 

You will have experience in machine learning, either through your studies or industrial R&D projects and work to advance exploratory research and development projects in computer vision and machine learning and related fields to create highly innovative customer solutions. The algorithm researcher will develop perception & learning systems using 2D and 3D visioning systems that are Enterprise-grade and ready for real world deployment.

You want to join us because you are passionate about:

• • Development of computer vision and machine learning algorithms and applications
  • Develop proof-of-concept implementations, prototypes and demos to fine-tune technologies to practical, state-of-the-art systems
  • Perform experiments and evaluations to quantify and validate improvements made to existing systems
  • Take responsibility for communicating with different engineers (embedded systems, backend server, computer vision) to continuously improve and optimize implemented algorithms
  • Create automated software tests and provide support to trouble shoot software issues when needed
  • Documentation of algorithms
  • Research fundamental problems and implement algorithmic solutions that are appropriate
  • Provide recommendations and solutions to problems using experience in multiple technical areas
  • Receive little instruction on day-to-day work and general instructions on new assignments
  • Influence the activities of junior level personnel

We want you to join us because you have: 

• Masters/PhD in computer vision or machine learning; alternatively a comparable industry career, with significant experience in delivering products using state-of-the-art computer vision and/or machine learning systems
• 5+ years work experience
• Solid foundation in computer vision; key areas of interest include object detection, tracking and recognition; multiple view geometry, 3D computer vision and SfM/SLAM; activity recognition
• Scripting and prototyping languages: Python, Matlab, C/C++
• Generic packages: OpenCV, Point Cloud Library
• Experience with deep learning and computer vision libraries, e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, Caffe, OpenCV, etc
• Ability to grasp new concepts quickly
• Ability to adapt and use these patterns in innovative ways to develop custom solutions
• Ability to take initiative on issues and report results instead of waiting for task lists
• Good presentation skills, both prepared and "on demand" talks
• Takes ownership of their work, is self-motivated & practical in their problem-solving and thrives in a fast-paced, highly-collaborative applied research environment

We offer you a: 

• Highly dynamic, innovative, and passionate team. 
• Open and inclusive company culture, including flexible hours. 
• Worldwide competitive salary.
