Requirements
  • You have a strong handle on modern JavaScript development, even if you don’t know every single JS quirk.
  • You are a self-starter who can prioritize what to work on and fully design, build, and write tests for new features.
  • You’re comfortable moving across the stack: on a typical day, you might optimize a database query and tweak a user interface to be more intuitive.
  • You have an eye for design and an understanding of what can make a user interface more intuitive and delightful.
  • You can show that you’re smart, analytical, and a fast learner. Sometimes you’ll work on things using unfamiliar languages or technologies, but you know you can handle that.
  • There aren’t any strict requirements for your background, but you’re technical. Maybe you have a CS (or similar) degree, or you’re a boot camp grad with a STEM background and strong portfolio, or you might be self-taught with a few years of industry experience.
  • It’s a plus if you have experience in areas that might be relevant to a startup working on computer vision: data visualization, scaling web applications, DevOps, etc…
  • Willingness and eligibility for security clearance up to TS/SCI.
Responsibilities
  • Design and develop features for a computer vision platform that is truly the first of its kind.
  • Identify new technologies and best practices for our growing engineering team.
  • Improve site performance on both the client and server-side.
  • Incorporate user feedback to design and build a better product.
  • Create better visualizations for the outputs of computer vision models running on video streams and images.
  • Ensure that our platform features work at an ever-growing scale.
