Job Description

A deep-tech startup building real-time vision intelligence systems, is looking for a senior applied researcher to take full ownership of a core domain — from research to production. The company is tackling one of the hardest perception challenges — early detection of low-visibility targets such as drones and vessels. The systems are deployed in real-world environments and have direct impact on safety and life-saving operations.

Responsibilities

• Own a computer vision / AI domain end-to-end — from problem definition to production deployment
• Develop new algorithms and improve existing models with measurable performance impact
• Design and execute experiments, analyze results, and iterate rapidly
• Integrate research directly into production systems and codebase
• Collaborate closely with researchers and engineers to deliver real-world solutions

Requirements

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in Computer Vision / Deep Learning with production exposure
• Proven ability to take complex problems from research to working solutions
• Strong experimental skills — ability to design, evaluate, and iterate effectively
• Strong coding skills in Python and experience with PyTorch
• Experience working within production codebases (not only research environments)
• Understanding of data lifecycle: collection, validation, and evaluation methodologies
• Independent, curious, and collaborative mindset

Nice to Have

• Experience with low-resolution, long-range, video, or thermal imaging
• Experience with embedded / edge deployment (ONNX, TensorRT, on-device inference)
