What the job involves

As an Engineering Manager, you will lead the development and refinement of a cutting-edge perception system, leveraging deep learning for real-world applications. Your expertise in applying computer vision in real-time production systems and team leadership will drive performance improvements and seamless integration across the company.

Responsibilities

• Oversee the device perception application development life cycle, from problem definition to deployment and ongoing improvement. 

• Lead a team of experienced software engineers to develop and refine the system in a hands-on manner. 

• Spearhead the integration of robust computer vision algorithms for object detection, tracking, semantic segmentation, and classification to run on an edge device.

• Champion the development of algorithms on the edge for complex urban scene understanding. 

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (cloud/system) for seamless integration and monitoring of perception models.

• Analyze data to identify performance bottlenecks and opportunities for enhancing the perception system. 

• Foster automation for continuous testing and release of our device application software.

• Communicate technical findings and insights effectively to stakeholders across the company to drive performance improvements.

Qualifications

• Ph.D. or Master’s in Robotics, Computer Vision, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

• 2+ years leading and managing teams focused on integrating real-world computer vision and perception algorithms using a mix of deep learning and traditional algorithms on edge devices. 

• Proven ability to deploy these systems with:

  • Deep Learning Frameworks: Expertise in PyTorch or TensorFlow (one mandatory, familiarity with both a plus).

  • Computer Vision Libraries: OpenCV.

  • Deployment Optimization Tools: TensorRT.

• Strong C++ programming and real-time software design on a linux based system.

• Experience deploying DL models to run on real-world, resource-constrained, systems with a pragmatic approach towards problem-solving.

• Proven industry track record with experience in:

  • Deploying real-time automated systems to solve real-world problems.

  • Integrating deep learning models with more traditional techniques to solve problems pragmatically.
