Senior AI & Computer Vision Software engineer

📋 Description

• • Join Plain Concepts' international research squad as a Senior AI & Computer Vision Software Engineer, a role where titles are secondary to impact and innovation.
• • This position is designed for individuals who thrive on solving complex, ambiguous problems with limited resources and no clear-cut solutions, embracing an Agile, iterative approach while upholding high engineering standards.
• • You will be instrumental in transforming cutting-edge research and early-stage technologies into tangible, usable, and production-ready software solutions.
• • Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Computer Vision (both 2D and 3D), 3D graphics, and spatial computing, all underpinned by robust software engineering practices.
• • Your primary responsibility will be to bring innovation to life by developing tailor-made solutions that impress clients and push technological boundaries.
• • You will be expected to demonstrate resoluteness in uncertain environments, effectively breaking down complex challenges into manageable iterations.
• • A key aspect of the role involves rapid prototyping, validating hypotheses, and efficiently discarding unpromising approaches to accelerate the innovation cycle.
• • You will make pragmatic decisions, balancing project requirements with time, budget, and technical constraints.
• • Defining and executing experiments, along with establishing relevant metrics, will be crucial for validating the effectiveness of developed solutions.
• • You will actively contribute to bringing innovation into real-world projects by studying and applying the latest techniques in AI, Computer Vision, and 3D technologies.
• • Creativity will be essential as you combine various tools and approaches to explore solutions that go beyond the conventional.
• • Building Proofs of Concept (PoCs) will be a regular task, aimed at tackling problems that currently lack established solutions in the market.
• • A significant part of your role will involve transitioning these prototypes into robust, production-ready solutions, ensuring they are maintainable, reliable, and equipped with appropriate monitoring.
• • You will proactively propose and implement improvements to existing architecture, data pipelines, and development workflows.
• • Sharing your expertise and contributing to the growth of the team is highly valued; this includes participating in internal knowledge-sharing sessions, conducting demos, mentoring colleagues, and creating comprehensive documentation.
• • You will also be encouraged to engage in external knowledge sharing through articles, presentations, workshops, and conferences, representing Plain Concepts in the wider tech community.
• • A critical function is bridging the gap between pure research and practical production environments.
• • This involves critically evaluating emerging technologies, understanding their trade-offs, limitations, and feasibility for real-world application.
• • You will play a vital role in reducing technical risk by employing iterative validation techniques.
• • Your efforts will help transform experimental 'cool demos' into dependable systems that can be reliably maintained over time.
• • Building software the 'right way' is a core tenet, emphasizing the creation of clean, maintainable, and production-ready code.
• • You will apply strong software engineering principles, including sound architectural design, comprehensive testing strategies, and performance optimization.
• • Active participation in code reviews and technical discussions is expected, fostering a collaborative and high-quality development environment.
• • Working within an Agile framework, you will demonstrate strong ownership and a collaborative spirit, contributing to team success.
• • The role offers the unique opportunity to work on projects that matter, with a team that shares your passion for technology and innovation, making a real impact in a dynamic and forward-thinking company.
