About the role
Our Barcode Decoding team is looking for a Senior CV/ML Engineer to define and drive significant improvements to Barcode Decoding for our core DataCapture SDK. The focus is on creating next-generation technology that will boost scan robustness and extend barcode scanning range beyond state of the art while also identifying short-term opportunities for immediate improvements that delight our customers.
This is an opportunity to innovate from the ground up within a successful, real-world product, understanding its current architecture to create impactful advancements and shape the future of Scandit’s market-leading scanning technology.
What you will do
- Define and drive the technical roadmap to address core challenges posed by low-resolution and low-quality image inputs, leveraging spatio-temporal information, including multi-frame super-resolution.
- Develop and implement novel end-to-end pipelines to replace existing barcode components in the long term.
- Identify short-term opportunities for immediate barcode scan robustness improvements.
- Provide technical mentorship to other team members in CV/ML, software development, and engineering practices.
- Contribute to shaping the team’s direction and technical best practices.
Who you are
You have a Ph.D. in Computer Vision or Machine Learning, with a focus on multi-frame image enhancement or end-to-end vision systems. You bring over 5 years of industry experience designing, implementing and shipping complex CV pipelines involving recognition (e.g., OCR) and multi-frame processing on edge/mobile devices.
You’ve led projects, mentored engineers, and taken ownership of technically challenging problems. While you stay current with the latest in CV/ML, you also understand the value of incremental, proven approaches to solving real-world problems. You are creative and determined to solve real-world problems by thinking outside the box and making an impact. You thrive on tackling open problems, taking ownership, and effectively overcoming obstacles. You pay attention to details and at the same time are able to take pragmatic shortcuts to reach our goals.
You feel comfortable working alone or in a team and have a track record of mentoring engineers and navigating challenging situations. You have excellent communication skills and can effectively break down complex problems and solutions. Given broad goals, you can plan work, identify dependencies, and set realistic timelines
In particular, we are excited to hear from you if the following sounds like you:
- 5+ years of industry experience solving multi-frame image processing problems with a proven track record of launched products
- Fluency in Python and another language (e.g. C/C++)
- Hands on experience with relevant machine learning frameworks (Pytorch, Jax, Tensorflow)
- Skilled in software design, problem-solving, and debugging
- Experience optimizing models for resource-constrained devices is a plus
