LMI Technologies recognized as one of Canadas Best Workplaces is a medium-sized technology company built on a culture of openness respect and professional excellence. At LMI our staff work passionately toward the common goal of designing and delivering innovative 3D machine vision solutions to OEMs and Syst-effective 3D sensor technologies that deliver the best results in even the most challenging 3D inline inspection applications.
What will you do as a Senior Vision Software Engineer
As a Senior Vision Software Developer you will be a technical leader within our R&D team reporting to the Software Development Manager . You will be the driving force behind the core algorithms that allow our sensors to perceive and reconstruct the 3D world .
We are seeking an expert in classical computer vision 3D metrology and signal processing to design develop and perfect the high-performance 3D acquisition and calibration algorithms at the heart of our next-generation sensor products .
While this is not primarily a machine learning position an ML background is welcome as an additional skill and may be valuable in the future. You will join a close-knit multi-disciplinary team of 14 engineers (software electrical mechanical/optical) and will have the opportunity to mentor junior members and lead complex technical projects from concept to completion.
We welcome applications from Senior Developers with backgrounds in Physics Photogrammetry Computational Geometry or Robotics provided you have expert-level C skills.
Technical Design & Development:
Design and develop robust 3D acquisition algorithms for our sensors to produce high-fidelity 3D data from 2D images.
Develop and improve critical components of our sensor calibration and acquisition pipeline.
Write and optimize manufacturing software tools (e.g. for focusing alignment and calibration) required to build and test new sensors.
Characterize validate and document prototype sensor performance working with the team to integrate final designs for customer use.
Lead technical investigations into challenging acquisition problems and algorithm improvements producing reports and documentation for senior management.
Demonstrate strong ownership driving complex projects to completion within reliable time frames.
Proactively contribute to and implement continuous improvement initiatives in our development processes.
Note on Seniority: This is a Lead/Principal level engineering role. Candidates must have 7 years of post-graduate commercial experience in C architecture to be considered.
