Computer Vision Engineer

Computer Vision & Machine Learning Engineer Autonomous Systems | Defense Technology Overview We’re working with a highly innovative, venture-backed defense technology startup building next-generation autonomous systems designed to operate in complex, real-world environments. Founded by experienced engineers with a strong track record in robotics and software, the team is developing advanced systems that combine computer vision, machine learning, and control systems to detect, track, and respond to fast-moving aerial threats. This is an opportunity to work on mission-critical technology with real-world impact , within an engineering-led culture that values speed, ownership, and technical excellence. What You’ll Be Doing Develop and optimise computer vision algorithms for real-time detection, tracking, and classification of dynamic objects Design and deploy machine learning models that perform reliably in resource-constrained, edge environments Work closely with hardware and electrical engineers to integrate perception systems into embedded platforms Test and validate models across a range of real-world scenarios and environmental conditions Contribute to scaling prototypes into robust, field-ready systems Support the evolution of the platform across different use cases and operational requirements What We’re Looking For Strong background in computer vision and machine learning , ideally within robotics or autonomous systems 4+ years of experience developing and deploying ML-based vision systems Experience working on real-time or safety-critical applications Proficiency in Python and/or C++ , with hands‑on experience using frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar Experience deploying models in embedded or edge environments Familiarity with sensor systems such as cameras, LiDAR, or radar Strong problem‑solving mindset and ability to work in cross‑functional engineering teams Nice to Have Experience in robotics, autonomy, or defense‑related applications Exposure to tracking systems, sensor fusion, or control systems Background in deploying models to production in constrained environments What’s On Offer Competitive salary + equity Full benefits package (health, dental, vision) Paid time off Opportunity to work on cutting-edge, real-world autonomous systems #J-18808-Ljbffr SR2 | Socially Responsible Recruitment | Certified B Corporation™
