Shape is looking for a talented computer vision engineer with an entrepreneurial spirit to join our team and help us achieve our technology goals. In this role, you will work on the acquisition, processing, and analysis of the data captured by ShapeScaleand develop state-of-the-art 3D reconstruction techniques.

It's a very rewarding role made for driven individuals who are excited to take on large responsibilities and solve unique technical challenges. It’s a role that will allow you to grow your own personal, managerial and technical skill-set inside of a thriving, small-team, startup environment.

Select, evaluate, test and potentially design 3D scanning methods and systems.

Apply mathematical (geometry, linear algebra, numerical methods, error analysis) and machine learning methods to prototype and develop algorithms for converting raw depth sensor data into point clouds, 2D and 3D tracking like SLAM, 3D point cloud reconstruction, registration, and classification as well as texture projection and completion.

Develop existing and new body shape parameterization, segmentation, correspondence, registration, posture estimation and analysis methods and algorithms.

Optimize code for running on CPU and GPU on embedded and non-embedded platforms.

Evaluate technical trade-offs

Ph.D. in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Physics or Computer Vision.

Prior experience involving 3D scanning or measurement of the human body is a big plus.

Completion and deployment of significant computer vision projects in a commercial environment.

Experience with existing computer vision libraries such as OpenCV, PCL, CGAL, Eigen, etc.

Experience with Texture projection, generation, completion using patch match algorithms.

Experience with computational imaging/photography.

Experience with machine learning algorithm such as SVM, decision forest, deep learning, etc.

Has experience with Agile methods, Scrum / Kanban / etc.

Knowledge of scripting language, e.g. Python, Bash, etc.

Camera and/or video pipeline knowledge and experience.

Competitive salary and equity

Flexible work schedule, unlimited holidays with a mandatory 15 days/year off.

Visa sponsorship if necessary

Motorized sit/standing desk with Herman Miller or Steelcase chairs.
