In Office Senior EMEA Artificial Intelligence Robotics Senior Software Engineer Python C++Data Quality

Requirements

• 4+ years of software engineering experience in production systems. • Strong skill in Python and backend engineering. • Working knowledge of C++ or a strong reason to be effective in performance-critical code. • Experience with data-intensive systems, distributed systems, parallel processing, or efficient data pipelines. • Exposure to ML, ML infrastructure, signal processing, real-time systems, computer vision, or related applied technical areas. • A track record of shipping reliable software, not only prototypes. • Strong debugging skills and the ability to find the root cause of complex system behavior. • Clear communication and good judgment when tradeoffs are not simple. • Curiosity, adaptability, and the desire to learn new technical areas. • Nice to have — and what would make you exceptional: • Experience with computer vision, depth cameras, pose estimation, tracking, or 3D data. • Experience with ML model deployment, feature pipelines, evaluation systems, or data quality tools. • Experience with streaming data, event systems, real-time processing, or low-latency applications. • Experience with numerical methods, signal processing, filtering, state estimation, or robotics. • WHAT YOUR SUCCESS WILL LOOK LIKE • In 6 months time, you understand the main systems, ship reliable changes, and help improve a meaningful data or product workflow. You give valuable technical input towards solving problems across backend, data, and perception systems. • In 12 months time, you have made a measurable impact on system reliability, product capability, or data quality. You own important parts of the architecture and help the team make better technical decisions.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement algorithms for 3D object tracking, segmentation, and motion recognition on embedded hardware. • Train and iterate on ML models — from dataset curation through training, evaluation, and deployment to edge devices. • Help bring ML, computer vision, or signal-processing systems into production with tight performance constraints • Build reliable application features and services that customers use in real environments. • Analyze production data to find system limits, product issues, and opportunities for improvement. • Collaborate closely with the embedded platform team on model optimization and inference performance, and with the applications team on how tracking data becomes product features.
