Computer Vision & Agentic AI Engineer (Co-Founder Track)

We are building a deep-tech startup at Constructor University Bremen (EXIST Research Transfer-funded Phase I) and are looking for a highly skilled and entrepreneurial Computer Vision Engineer who will take full ownership of the perception and video analytics stack - from zero to a fully functional, production-ready system.

Your mission:

• Design, develop and optimize the complete video analytics / detection pipeline (object detection, tracking, barcode/OCR, 3D reconstruction, monocular depth estimation).
• Build robust, real-time capable software for autonomous systems (drone).
• Work end-to-end: from data acquisition and annotation strategy to model training, deployment and continuous improvement.
• Think and act like a co-founder - you will shape the core technology of the company.

• Very strong expertise in video analytics, image processing and deep learning
• Excellent skills in Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, OpenCV and modern computer vision libraries
• Practical experience with foundation models
• Experience with the MMLab ecosystem (MMDetection, MMCV, etc.) is a strong plus
• Practical experience with Agentic AI, multi-object tracking, depth estimation or 3D scene understanding
• Experience with autonomous systems / robotics (ROS2 is a plus)
• Ability to develop clean, maintainable, production-grade software from scratch
• Strong ability to develop novel algorithms and innovative approaches in computer vision and agentic AI
• Master's or PhD in Computer Vision, Robotics, AI or related field (must be completed by September 2026)
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work both independently and in a small, motivated team
• Entrepreneurial mindset, high ownership and strong problem-solving skills
• Very good English (German is a plus)

* Full-time position (TV-L E13) in an EXIST-funded research transfer project at Constructor University Bremen * Gross annual salary approx. 77,300 € (before tax) * Real co-founder opportunity in a well-funded deep-tech university startup * Direct impact on the core technology and future of the company * Work with a small, highly motivated international team * Possibility to stay on as co-founder / early employee after Phase I We prefer candidates who already hold a valid residence permit in Germany. However, University may support the visa process for exceptionally strong and highly talented candidates. If you are a strong, hands-on computer vision developer who wants to build something meaningful and is ready to take full responsibility for the perception system, we want to hear from you.
