Computer Vision Engineer

Drones kill and injure more than 5,000 Ukrainians per month—more than any other weapon.

Our client is on a mission to stop that.

They make hand-launched missiles to neutralize short-range air threats. Small enough to carry three in a tactical vest and affordable for all ground units, our micro-missile will be the smallest, most cost-effective guided missile ever deployed.

Their goal:Turn the tide of war in Ukraine and provide NATO with a proven solution to drone threats.

We are seeking aComputer Vision Engineerto join the founding team. You’ll develop and deploy real-time vision algorithms on edge hardware to track fast-moving aerial targets. Your work will include sensor and board selection, data collection, and implementing efficient classical CV techniques to meet extreme performance and size constraints.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and optimize real-time optical detection and tracking algorithms.
• Deploy vision algorithms on edge hardware for low-latency performance.
• Design and execute data collection processes to train and validate CV models.
• Select and integrate sensors, processors, and IMUs.
• Collaborate with a team to ensure seamless integration into the missile system.

Required Qualifications:

• Hands-on experience with classical computer vision methods and edge deployment.
• Experience with fast optical tracking and real-time systems.
