Job Title: Senior Computer Vision Engineer
Department: Immersive Technologies
Location: Vapi, Gujarat.
Reports To: Immersive Technologies Lead
Experience: 5–8 Years
Job Purpose:
To take technical ownership of computer vision, optical tracking, camera calibration, and 6-DOF pose estimation for Immersive Technologies' next-generation Computer-Assisted Navigation solutions across workstation platforms.
The role will develop and validate robust optical tracking systems that convert camera observations, fiducial/marker information, and optical tracker measurements into accurate, stable, and time-synchronized 3D poses for surgical navigation.
The role requires a highly quantitative approach to computer vision engineering, with emphasis on detection reliability, pose stability, latency, reprojection error, coordinate-frame consistency, calibration, reacquisition, and regression-tested performance rather than subjective visual tuning.
Skills and Competencies:
- Strong proficiency in C++ and OpenCV.
- Strong understanding of camera calibration and camera models.
- Strong knowledge of PnP, rigid-body pose estimation, fiducial/marker detection, and optical tracking.
- Robust understanding of 3D geometry and coordinate transformations.
- Strong knowledge of homogeneous transformation matrices and multi-frame coordinate chains.
- Strong understanding of camera-to-tracker, tracker-to-instrument, and tracker-to-anatomy transformations.
- Experience with infrared cameras, optical tracking spheres,
fiducial markers, or metrology systems.
- Strong quantitative approach to computer-vision evaluation.
- Experience measuring detection accuracy, pose jitter, latency, reprojection error, and tracking reliability.
- Strong debugging skills across native C++, OpenCV, Android, and desktop environments.
- Experience with JNI/NDK and native library integration is preferred.
- Experience with Android Camera2 or desktop camera SDKs is preferred.
- Experience with Python for offline computer-vision analysis and dataset processing is preferred.
- Knowledge of RANSAC and geometric model fitting is preferred.
- Knowledge of filtering and temporal pose stabilization techniques is preferred.
- Experience with optical tracker calibration and system characterization is preferred.
- Understanding of real-time processing, frame synchronization, timestamps, and latency management.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong attention to numerical accuracy, coordinate consistency, and measurement reliability.
- Strong documentation and communication skills.
- Ability to work effectively with software, hardware, embedded, biomechanics, clinical, and QA teams.
- Comfortable working daily with physical cameras, optical trackers, instruments, fixtures, and laboratory navigation systems.
- Passion for computer vision, surgical robotics, optical tracking, immersive technologies, and healthcare innovation.
