Team Description:

Kitware’s computational imaging team uses traditional and non-traditional image sensors in novel ways to address challenges faced by our customers. Our solutions embrace deep learning and add measurable value to government agencies, commercial organizations, and academic institutions worldwide. We understand the opportunities of non-traditional visual sensors to improve the performance of real-world applications of computer vision. We seek to advance the fields of computational imaging, computer vision, and deep learning through research and development and through collaborative projects that build on our open source software platforms, such as VIAME and Telesculptor.

About the Projects:

Kitware’s employees have unique opportunities to interact and collaborate directly with customers, visit interesting customer sites, and participate in live field tests and demonstrations. Much of Kitware’s work involves applying state-of-the-art computational imaging and artificial intelligence approaches to dynamic, real-world problems. You will have the opportunity to contribute your skills to projects focused on national security, making a difference on a daily basis to protect our country. Research and Development Engineers at Kitware also enjoy benefits commonly associated with a position in academia, such as support and encouragement for the publication of novel work.

We partner with premier government R&D agencies such as DARPA, IARPA, AFRL, NVESD, NOAA, ONR, other branches of the US military, and multiple members of the Intelligence Community on a range of efforts including prime contracts, SBIRs, and STTRs. In addition, we provide commercial services to companies ranging from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Kitware employs an open source business model to foster extended, collaborative communities, and to provide flexible, high-quality technical solutions. If you’ve used CMake, ITK, or VTK, you know our work and the impact it has on the communities we help build.

Develop robust computational imaging solutions to capture and process visual information, often in challenging environments (e.g. turbulence and low lighting)

Enjoy support and encouragement for participation in national and international conferences (such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ICCP, WACV, and 3DV)

Be encouraged to seek funding to grow and develop your own research areas, if you desire

PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Optics, or related field

Strong publication record in top-tier research publications and conferences

Highly innovative and demonstrated track record for solving difficult technical challenges using imagery

Experience collaborating successfully with others and thriving in a fast-paced and dynamic work environment

Candidates should include a detailed list of publications as part of their resume/CV

Due to contractual restrictions, only US Citizens will be considered for this position

If not already cleared TS/SCI, willingness and ability to apply for and maintain a TS/SCI security clearance

Experience with computational cameras (light field cameras, event sensors, SPADs, etc.) is highly desirable

Experience with deep learning methods is desirable, but not required
