    • Python
    • C++ (preferred for performance-critical components)
  • Proven experience with:
    • OpenCV
    • TensorFlow and/or PyTorch
  • Hands-on experience with state-of-the-art computer vision architectures, such as:
    • Vision Transformers (ViT, Swin)
    • Modern object detection and segmentation frameworks (YOLO, Mask R-CNN, SAM-style approaches)
    • Contrastive and self-supervised learning methods
  • Solid understanding of:
    • Image processing fundamentals
    • Object detection, segmentation, and classification
    • Camera calibration and geometric vision
  • Ability to evaluate and adapt latest research and industry best practices to real-world industrial constraints
  • Experience working with noisy, unstructured, and imperfect industrial data
  • Ability to independently design and deliver end-to-end inspection systems

Nice to Have

• Industrial Vision Hardware:

  • Hands-on experience with industrial vision hardware:
    • Area-scan and line-scan cameras
    • Optics, resolution, and field-of-view trade-offs
    • Triggering and synchronization
