We are seeking a Senior Computer Vision / Multimodal Engineer to design, train, and deploy advanced vision models for object detection, segmentation, tracking, and behavior analysis within real-world retail and mobility environments. You will play a key role in optimizing real-time performance for edge and cloud systems, developing robust inference pipelines, and pushing the boundaries of multimodal AI.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge visual AI that impacts real-world applications, collaborating with a highly skilled team of data scientists, engineers, and product experts.


Key Responsibilities

  • Design, train, and deploy Computer Vision models for detection, segmentation, tracking, and behavior understanding.
  • Optimize inference pipelines for real-time performance on edge devices (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Coral) and cloud infrastructure.
  • Collaborate with data and product teams to define new use cases, prototype solutions, and take models from lab to production.
  • Develop synthetic data generation pipelines and augmentation strategies to enhance robustness across lighting conditions, formats, and environments.
  • Research and integrate state-of-the-art Vision Transformers (ViTs), Large Vision Models (LVMs), and Multimodal AI into production workflows.
  • Work with CCTV and multi-camera systems for tracking, localization, and behavior analytics.
  • Build proof-of-concept systems, perform real-world validation, and continuously improve accuracy and performance.


Requirements

  • 5–7 years of experience in Computer Vision and Deep Learning with deployed production models.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and PyTorch; hands-on experience with OpenCV, TensorRT, ONNX, or Triton.
  • Proven expertise in object detection/tracking models such as YOLO, Deep SORT, DINOv2, or similar.
  • Experience with real-time or low-latency processing, multi-threaded programming, and performance tuning.
  • Experience deploying and optimizing models on edge devices (Jetson, Coral, etc.).
  • Demonstrated passion for research, innovation, and emerging AI technologies.
  • Experience in 3D modeling or video behavior analytics is a plus.


ONLY CANDIDATES WITH THE REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE SHOULD APPLY TO THIS JOB!

How to Write an AI CV that Beats ATS (UK examples)

Writing an AI CV for the UK market is about clarity, credibility, and alignment. Recruiters spend seconds scanning the top third of your CV, while Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) check for relevant skills & recent impact. Your goal is to make both happy without gimmicks: plain structure, sharp evidence, and links that prove you can ship to production. This guide shows you exactly how to do that. You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research). Paste the structure, replace the details, and tailor to each job ad.

AI Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Must Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK AI hiring has shifted from titles & puzzle rounds to skills, portfolios, evals, safety, governance & measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews, and how to prepare—especially for LLM application, MLOps/platform, data science, AI product & safety roles. Who this is for: AI/ML engineers, LLM engineers, data scientists, MLOps/platform engineers, AI product managers, applied researchers & safety/governance specialists targeting roles in the UK.

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
