Language skills Fluency in French and English Soft skills Strong problem-solving skills, strong analytical skills. Flexible to dynamic environments and fast changing technologies. Passionate about technology. This person must work well with other engineers in a team environment. Good sense of autonomy. Must be pragmatic and self-motivated to complete a task even if it is outside of just the "well known" realm. "Can Do Attitude" is preferred. ## Description Provide hands-on technical leadership for perception and AI developments, with a strong focus on event-based vision, computer vision, software architecture and system integration. The role bridges algorithms, software, embedded deployment and validation, while guiding a small engineering team and remaining directly involved in implementation. Role description * Define and drive software for AI / computer vision components. * Define detailed interfaces, lead design reviews and make implementation trade-offs. * Contribute directly to C++ and Python development for algorithms, tooling, integration and validation. * Guide event-based vision and perception developments, including tracking, detection and related algorithms. * Mentor engineers, review designs and code, and help prioritize technical activities. * Ensure solutions are deployable on target platforms and meet performance, latency and resource constraints. * Work in close collaboration with the VP Software & AI to define the perception architecture stack. Key deliverables * Documented perception / detailed software architecture, component boundaries and interface definitions. * Technical tasks organization and prioritized engineering decisions aligned with the VP Software & AI. * Production-quality C++ and Python perception components, tools and integration code. * Validated event-based perception modules with documented accuracy, latency and resource characteristics. * Deployment-ready software for agreed target platforms, with associated validation and technical documentation. * Design reviews, code reviews and technical guidance that raise the engineering maturity of the team. Performance indicators * Delivery of agreed technical milestones and architecture decisions on schedule. * Achievement of agreed perception quality, latency and computing-resource targets. * Architecture maintainability, modularity and successful adoption by the engineering team. * Software quality: testability, code review quality, defect rate and technical debt control. * Successful deployment and validation on target platforms. * Effectiveness of technical mentoring, knowledge sharing and team coordination. ## Related Videos - [Hiring AI Native Talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100268-hiring-ai-native-talents) - [Tour de Force: Open-Source LLM Inference Optimization from Simple to Sophisticated](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100099-tour-de-force-open-source-llm-inference-optimization-from-simple-to-sophisticated) - [Shifting Stress to Progress— Understanding DevOps to do DevOps Better](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/268-shifting-stress-to-progress-understanding-devops-to-do-devops-better) - [The Software Engineer 2030: From Coder To AI Orchestrator? - Patrick Schnell](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1825-the-software-engineer-2030-from-coder-to-ai-orchestrator-patrick-schnell) - [Efficient deployment and inference of GPU-accelerated LLMs​](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/929-efficient-deployment-and-inference-of-gpu-accelerated-llms) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) ## Related Articles - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers)
