The company believes that AI has the power to transform lives on a global scale. Its mission is to make this future a reality by equipping today’s innovators with tools to surpass the physical limitations of the world.

The team has developed generative AI technologies that allow users to create immersive 3D environments and synthetic imagery. These systems accelerate the training of advanced Physical AI models, enabling breakthroughs such as autonomous spacecraft landings, maritime threat detection, and large-scale environmental mapping from orbit.

Why This Role Matters

  • Work on cutting-edge computer vision challenges with real-world impact.

  • Build and deploy AI products that support space exploration, environmental protection, and global security.

  • Collaborate directly with customers to identify challenges and co-develop tailored AI and computer vision solutions.

  • Join an ambitious, diverse, and high-performing team.

This role centers on collaborating directly with clients to analyze their toughest challenges and build custom AI solutions using advanced vision systems and simulation technologies.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Partner with client teams to identify technical pain points and craft AI-driven approaches to address them.

  • Design, implement, and deploy computer vision models adapted to diverse operational scenarios.

  • Serve as the key link between client requirements and internal product and engineering teams to ensure solutions are effectively delivered.

  • Provide technical expertise during engagements, translating business needs into practical, high-impact implementations.

  • Feed insights from hands-on deployments back into the platform to drive continuous product improvements.

  • Prepare and deliver proof-of-concepts and demonstrations to audiences ranging from engineers to senior leadership.

  • Actively participate in relevant technical networks and industry-focused events as a representative of the organization.

Required Background:

  • 4+ years in an engineering role involving direct client interaction and hands-on experience in computer vision and machine learning

  • Strong Python programming skills with experience using major computer vision libraries and frameworks.

  • Ability to simplify and communicate complex technical ideas for varied audiences.

  • Demonstrated strength in diagnosing problems and developing tailored, customer-focused solutions.

  • Experience bridging field feedback into product and engineering roadmaps.

Additional Experience That Stands Out:

  • Familiarity with simulation or real-time rendering engines.

  • Prior exposure to technical outreach, developer advocacy, or roles requiring on-site engineering deployment.

  • Knowledge of 3D asset workflows and tools for environment or model creation and modification.
