Computer Vision Engineer

Join an early-stage industrial robotics startup building a fully flexible, intelligent robotic work cell for surface finishing, welding, and coating. As a foundational perception engineer, you will be the person who gives the robot its eyes - designing and owning the real-time vision pipelines, 3D perception systems, and deep learning models that make autonomous industrial automation possible. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role at the core of the product., * Build and maintain real-time computer vision pipelines for surface analysis and defect detection

• Develop 3D perception systems using depth cameras, laser scanners, and/or LiDAR, including point cloud processing
• Own calibration and maintenance of the full perception sensor stack (camera/LiDAR calibration workflows)
• Train and deploy deep learning models for object detection, pose estimation, segmentation, and defect classification
• Optimize model inference for edge and embedded deployment using CUDA-enabled acceleration
• Translate visual outputs into actionable robot control signals
• Define, architect, and iterate on the sensor stack as the product evolves

• 3+ years of hands-on experience with real-time computer vision pipelines for 3D perception and surface analysis
• Experience with depth cameras, LiDAR, or laser scanners and processing of 3D point clouds
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++ for robotics or vision applications
• Hands-on experience with OpenCV and PCL (Point Cloud Library) in production perception systems
• Experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch or TensorFlow) for detection, segmentation, pose estimation, and defect classification
• Experience with CUDA-enabled acceleration and optimization for embedded/edge targets
• Ability to calibrate and maintain multi-sensor perception stacks
• Experience translating visual outputs into robot control signals and contributing to sensor architecture decisions

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with ROS 2 for robotics integration
• Background in industrial inspection or quality-control vision systems

• Competitive cash salary (estimated €65,000-€95,000 depending on experience)
• Meaningful equity participation
• Small, ambitious team with high individual impact and fast decision-making
