This role focuses on developing and optimizing computer vision and machine learning systems for an autonomous gun turret designed to detect, track, and neutralize enemy drones. You will work on real-time drone detection, tracking, and classification, and collaborate with electrical engineers to integrate vision systems into the turret's hardware. The position also involves testing algorithms under various conditions and contributing to hardening the prototype into a military-grade system.

Responsibilities

  • Development and optimization of computer vision algorithms for our autonomous gun turret, focusing on real-time drone detection, tracking, and classification.
  • Design and implement machine learning models that can operate in resource-constrained environments while maintaining high accuracy and reliability.
  • Collaborate closely with electrical engineers to integrate computer vision systems into the turret's hardware architecture.
  • Conduct extensive testing and validation of computer vision algorithms in various scenarios to ensure robustness and performance under different environmental conditions.
  • Contribute to the hardening of the prototype turret into a military-grade system, and assist in developing variants for different weapon systems and engagement ranges.

Requirements

  • Deep passion for machine learning, computer vision, and robotics, and have been exploring these areas since early in your career.
  • More than 7+ years of experience working on machine-learning-based computer vision, ideally in the context of robotics.
  • At least a Bachelors and/or Masters Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with a strong focus on machine learning and computer vision.
  • A proven track record of senior-level experience developing and deploying computer vision systems, ideally in real-time or safety-critical applications.
  • Proficient in Python, C++, and have experience with machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or similar.
  • Experience with embedded systems and integrating computer vision algorithms into hardware.
  • Familiar with various sensors (e.g., cameras, LIDAR, RADAR) and their integration into autonomous systems.
  • You enjoy collaborating with other engineers to solve complex technical challenges.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary
  • ACS Equity Package
  • Health, Dental, Vision Insurance
  • Paid Time Off
