Principal Computer Vision Engineer

Instacart·Israel·
Not specifiedFull-timeAI & Machine LearningLogistics

Join a small AI team developing computer vision and augmented-reality technology for real-time object detection, scanning, spatial understanding, and retail analytics on mobile devices.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and evolve computer vision pipelines from research and training through production deployment.
  • Design classic computer vision algorithms and deep learning architectures for spatial understanding, alignment, and tracking.
  • Train, evaluate, and fine-tune models for detection, classification, and segmentation.
  • Build and optimize low-latency inference pipelines in Python and C++ using CUDA and TensorRT.
  • Set technical direction for AI training and inference systems and evaluate new architectures.
  • Own technical design, implementation, observability, and iterative improvement of the perception engine.
  • Collaborate with mobile and backend engineering teams to deliver production capabilities.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of industry experience in computer vision, machine learning, or a related field.
  • Strong practical expertise in optical flow, multi-view geometry, feature matching, homography estimation, and OpenCV.
  • Strong understanding of deep learning for object detection, image classification, and semantic or instance segmentation.
  • Production-level Python programming skills.
  • Extensive experience with PyTorch and scalable model training and evaluation pipelines.
  • Proven ability to optimize complex algorithms for resource-constrained or real-time deployment.

Nice to have

  • Experience with advanced segmentation and foundation models such as SAM, Mask2Former, or Grounding DINO.
  • Experience integrating computer vision models into native iOS or Android SDKs.
  • Experience translating computer vision algorithms into Apple frameworks and iOS.
  • Background in retail technology or augmented-reality scanning applications.
