TreeX Robotics is seeking a Senior Computer Vision & Algorithms Engineer to own core perception and decision-making modules for autonomous robotics systems. You will bridge machine learning outputs and real-world robot behavior, transforming noisy sensor data and incomplete computer vision outputs into robust, actionable decisions that ensure reliable performance in challenging outdoor conditions.
In this hands-on role at an early-stage startup, you will:
- Design, implement, and validate perception post-processing and decision-making modules
- Transform ML and computer vision outputs (3D point cloud segmentation, sensor data) into reliable, structured representations
- Develop algorithms for noise filtering, tracking, and spatial reasoning under uncertainty
- Design and implement decision logic for robot target selection and behavior
- Develop and improve computer vision and 3D perception pipelines for real-world deployment
- Work closely with ML engineers to define interfaces, handle uncertainty/confidence, and improve system robustness
- Deploy and optimize algorithms on embedded edge platforms (NVIDIA Jetson)
- Write production-grade C++ code and prototype in Python
- Debug and iterate using real-world flight data and field tests
- Lead module validation within the integrated robot environment and field-test scenarios
This role requires strong ownership, fast iteration, and comfort working in ambiguous, real-world environments.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 5+ years of experience in algorithm development (robotics, perception, or similar domains)
- Strong background in classical perception: geometry, filtering, tracking
- Solid computer vision experience
- Strong programming skills in Python (research/prototyping) and Modern C++ (production systems)
- Experience working with real-world, noisy sensor data and resource-constrained system designs
- Proven ability to take full ownership of complex modules from design to deployment
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous startup environments
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Experience with real-time or low-latency systems
- Experience with NVIDIA Jetson or similar edge computing platforms
- CUDA / GPU acceleration
- Background in aerial robotics or autonomous systems
