imaging sensor designed for biometric applications.
As a Sr. Image Processing Engineer, you are excited by
solving challenging imaging problems, and are
knowledgeable of the latest technology in the industry.
Our team approaches problems as both individuals and
teams, so you need to be a highly creative individual
contributor, as well as have the ability to solve
complex problems as member of a team. You possess the
ability to work under minimal supervision with other
engineers and scientists to develop and implement new
and improved system capabilities.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
• Algorithm development, design, and implementation
• Algorithm validation and analysis on public and
private databases
• Adaptation and optimization of R&D algorithms to
production-quality software
• Work with the software team to accelerate internal
timelines
Minimum Qualifications:
· MS in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering
· At least 5 years conducting research in computer
vision or pattern recognition
· At least 5 years experience designing, writing, and
testing computer vision algorithms in MATLAB and C++
· Familiarity with evaluating biometric system
performance
· Strong understanding of 2D image and 3D world geometry
and their relationship
· Ability to independently and successfully implement
cutting edge algorithms as demonstrated in the research
literature
· Ability to make adaptations to existing approaches to
improve practicality of deployment while still
maintaining accurate algorithm performance
· Ability to produce novel, but mathematically
defensible, approaches to problems
· Good communications skills, both written and verbal
· Strong code optimization and debugging skills
· Experience and background with computer vision and
image processing algorithms:
o Experience in low-level image processing (i.e. noise
reduction, edge detection, morphological filtering,
etc.)
o Experience and/or familiarity with leading feature
extraction algorithms (SURF, SIFT, Gabor, LBP, etc.)
o Experience and/or familiarity with standard pattern
recognition algorithms (i.e. PCA, LDA, Sparse
Representation, Kernel methods, SVM’s, Adaboost, Neural
Networks,
etc. )
o Practical work experience in understanding and
integrating OpenCV algorithms into applications.
Desired Qualifications:
· Education: PhD in Computer Science or Electrical
Engineering
· Face recognition or biometric research
· 3D Image Processing
· Experience with techniques that use 3D models to
improve 2D images for face recognition
· GPU and/or experience writing multi-threaded
applications
