We're looking for a research engineer interesting in solving the structure from motion problem, arguably the most challenging part of any 3D reconstruction pipeline.

Preferred Qualifications and skills:
  • Strong mathematical and statistical background with deep insights into machine learning algorithms.
  • Expert in Structure from Motion
  • Expert in SLAM, state estimation.
  • 3+ years of practical work experience in computer vision, with hands-on development experience.

Nice to Have:
  • Experience in Radiance Fields (Nerf, Gaussian Splatting, etc.).
  • Proficient in using open-source deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow/PyTorch.
  • Experience in model training and performance optimization.
  • Contributions to popular open-source machine learning projects.
  • Publications in top-tier AI/ML/CV conferences.

Location:
  • London, UK / Graz, Austria: This is a priority for us, as we're trying to build a presence around our already existing team in London or Graz. Hybrid in office preferred
  • Remote: If London is not an option, but you're amazing, we're open to having you work out your home location.

Benefits:
  • Competitive salary, benefits and stock options.
  • Pension, retirement plan for employees
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
