I am working with a pioneering research organisation at the cutting edge of artificial intelligence and computer vision, who are looking to appoint a highly skilled Computer Vision Engineer. This role offers an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking team that is driving innovation in real-world AI applications through advanced research and development.

This is a chance to make a significant contribution to projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible in computer vision — while enjoying a highly competitive package.

As a Computer Vision Engineer, you will play a central role in developing and deploying systems that achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in detection, segmentation, and tracking. You will be working in an environment that values technical depth, rigorous research, and practical application of cutting-edge ideas.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Designing and optimising deep learning models for real-world performance.
  • Building robust computer vision pipelines for detection, segmentation, and tracking.
  • Combining classical computer vision methods (OpenCV, feature extraction, motion tracking) with modern CNN architectures.
  • Experimenting with advanced detection and segmentation heads to enhance accuracy.
  • Curating, managing, and optimising large datasets for effective training.
  • Applying strong metrics literacy and data science techniques to evaluate and refine models.
  • Contributing to a collaborative research culture, sharing insights and results with peers.

Key experience needed:

  • Proven experience in optimising and deploying deep learning models at scale.
  • Expertise in OpenCV and classical computer vision approaches.
  • Strong knowledge of CNN building blocks, training dynamics, and segmentation/detection techniques.
  • Skilled in dataset curation and management for machine learning pipelines.
  • A data-driven approach with excellent skills in metrics and statistical analysis.
  • Passionate about applying computer vision research to solve complex, real-world problems.

The role is offering a base salary of £70,000 per annum + a wealth of benefits, including a bonus of up to 100%. This is a remote position with occasional team meet ups within the UK.
