ABOUT THE TEAM

Our Warfighter Systems division is pioneering a future where mixed reality (MR), creates immersive, intuitive, and life-saving technologies. By seamlessly integrating real-time data with cutting-edge visualization tools, we are empowering warfighters with unparalleled situational awareness, enhanced training experiences, and operational superiority. This team is consistently pushing the boundaries of what s possible, and shaping a future where technology and defense unite to protect our nation.

Come join one of the strongest performing mixed reality teams in the industry, dedicated to revolutionizing experiences for the warfighter. You will solve challenging computer vision problems arising in calibration of soldier-borne visual augmentation devices and provide geometric characterizations of cameras, sensors, and displays necessary for sensing and interpreting environmental data. This role requires a blend of deep technical expertise and creative problem-solving skills as you contribute to national defense initiatives while pushing the boundaries of mixed reality.

The Computer Vision Software Engineer will focus on developing novel camera, sensor, and display calibration solutions (both offline and online) and elements of vision-based pose estimation systems to enable key functions in visual augmentation devices, including navigation and environment understanding. This role involves:

• Designing and developing calibration and tracking/localization algorithms using standard computer vision techniques such as bundle adjustment, feature detection and matching, pose computation, and homography fitting.
• Creating testing and evaluation frameworks for advanced geometric solutions, designing experiments, analyzing experimental and production data.
• Developing manufacturing workflows in collaboration with mechanical engineering and manufacturing teams.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities.
• BS in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
• Ability to code in C++ and Python.
• Understanding of fundamental computer vision concepts, e.g., camera projection, image distortion, rigid transformations, and constraints involving two or more views.
• Prior exposure to geometric computer vision (SLAM, Camera Calibration, Stereo Vision, Photogrammetry, or similar) in academic or professional work.
• Good communication skills for effective collaboration with hardware, software, and manufacturing teams.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• MS or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
• Experience with multi-camera systems, camera calibration techniques and tools.
• Experience with mathematical packages in C++ and Python (e.g., Ceres, Eigen, Num Py, Sci Py).
• Familiarity with numeric computing platforms such as MATLAB, Octave, or Jupyter.
