Job Summary
About Merlin:
Merlin is a venture backed aerospace startup building a non-human pilot to enable both reduced crew and uncrewed flight. Backed by some of the worlds leading investors Merlin is scaling alongside our customers to begin leveraging autonomy today to solve some of aviations biggest challenges.
About You:
Youre a computer vision specialist who loves turning raw sensor data into actionable insights. You thrive at the intersection of algorithms hardware and real-world deploymentdesigning systems that can see understand and interact with the physical world. Youre comfortable moving between high-level model development and low-level camera calibration and you take pride in building robust solutions that work reliably outside the lab.
Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement object detection and identification algorithms for real-time applications.
- Design and optimize depth sensing and 3D mapping pipelines integrating data from cameras and other sensors.
- Specify configure and calibrate camera systems including selection of optics sensors and hardware.
- Develop tools and processes for camera calibration synchronization and data acquisition.
- Fuse data from multiple cameras/sensors to improve accuracy and robustness in perception systems.
- Collaborate with robotics controls and systems engineers to integrate computer vision into robotic platforms.
- Conduct experiments evaluate performance and refine algorithms for accuracy efficiency and scalability.
Qualifications:
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Electrical Engineering Robotics or related field.
- Strong experience with computer vision algorithms (object detection tracking identification SLAM).
- Proficiency in depth sensing and 3D reconstruction techniques (stereo vision structured light ToF LiDAR integration).
- Hands-on experience with camera setup specification and calibration (intrinsic/extrinsic distortion models multi-camera rigs).
- Proficiency with computer vision libraries and frameworks (OpenCV PyTorch/TensorFlow CUDA).
- Experience developing in C and/or Python for high-performance vision applications.
- Strong understanding of camera hardware and imaging pipelines.
- Ability to design experiments analyze results and iterate quickly in a collaborative engineering environment.
Nice to Haves:
- Experience with ROS/ROS2 integration for robotic vision.
- Familiarity with real-time embedded systems or GPU optimization.
- Knowledge of multi-sensor fusion (IMU LiDAR radar) for perception.
- Background in calibration automation and large-scale data collection pipelines.
