Responsibilities:
- Advance our computer vision platform to enable a mobile robotic system to perform quick, on-site calibrations
- Development of computer vision algorithms to identify and plan around 2D and 3D features
- Develop methods for integrating imagery and feature detection into our localization and mapping systems
- Analysis of RGB images to extract data on process quality. Create new methods for evaluating and optimizing process for quality and speed.
- Work with the team to create automated logging of vision sensor and performance data from the field in a scalable way
- Develop methods to extract performance data from real-time and recorded imagery
About us:
Canvas is located in San Francisco, California. We are looking for outstanding candidates to help bring automation to the $10T construction industry which is struggling with decreasing productivity and labor shortages. We believe that productivity leaps can be achieved by tools that leverage the operator’s knowledge and skill but take the dangerous and dull out of the task. Our approach to unbolting robots is to focus on quick setup through on-site calibration and leveraging a sense of touch.
We are an incredibly diverse group representing a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe our diversity makes us better lateral thinkers and more creative problem solvers.
The position:
We are looking for a talented software engineer who is excited to lead the development of a computer vision platform that will allow our construction tools to effectively plan and interact with the world. This person will work closely with the controls team to bring our hardware to life. The role will be a split between development of computer vision algorithms and providing support to the planning and control behaviors that will act off of the vision information.
We are looking for an adaptable candidate who is excited by the prospect of building state of the art vision systems while being highly motivated to build practical solutions for the real world. The ideal candidate will have worked in a robotics related field. As a small company we look for people who thrive in a flexible environment. The right person will bring a passion for their work that is only enhanced by their ability to listen to others and weigh different approaches evenly.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Eligibility to work in the U.S.
- BA/BS degree in Software or related field
- 3 years relevant experience in computer vision and robotics
- Understanding of various vision technologies (RGB-D, Stereo, etc.) and techniques (2D/3D detection, filtering, feature extraction, clustering, etc.)
- Experience writing / debugging / parameter tuning / generating efficient code for computer vision
- Familiarity with ROS, OpenCV, PointCloudLibrary software tools
- Ability to work with existing codebases and to create complex software platforms from scratch
- Proficiency with C++, Python, and Linux
- You enjoy working in teams but can complete complex tasks that require critical thinking without supervision.
- Have a natural excitement to explore problems and share your knowledge with colleagues
Preferred Qualifications:
- Previous experience developing perception for mobile manipulation systems
- Directly worked with robotics hardware and possess an understanding of real world issues that arise, experience with time sensitive software
- Fundamental understanding of planning, and optimization
- Ability to provide leadership, manage schedules, and in time, grow a team
