Education
BS or MS in Computer Science, EE, Robotics, or a related field, or equivalent experience.

About the job

Builds and ships computer vision and machine-learning features that extract 3D objects and lines from LiDAR point clouds and imagery for Mach9’s AI-enabled CAD system.

What you'll do

  • Develop extraction features end to end, from customer and product scoping through data strategy, model training, evaluation, and integration into Digital Surveyor.
  • Adapt production models to new object classes, regions, and sensor types; build evaluation pipelines and iterate based on customer feedback and metrics.
  • Use and build on existing model families and open-source tools for vision, point clouds, and geometry.

What they ask for

  • BS or MS in Computer Science, EE, Robotics, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Strong coding abilities; preferably Python and Pytorch, and comfort working with a large codebase.
  • Hands-on experience training or fine-tuning a vision model through work, internships, or projects.
  • Working knowledge of 3D perception geometry, including coordinate systems, transforms, and projecting between images and point clouds.

Nice to have

  • Prior use of open-source vision foundation models, such as the SAM family, DINO, or Grounding DINO.
  • Experience with point clouds or LiDAR, or deploying models to production using ONNX, TensorRT, or batch inference on cloud GPUs.
