[visionlist] Computer Vision Research Engineer at IIT, Genoa, Italy - (21000042)

[Pavis]

The Pattern Analysis and Computer Vision (PAVIS) Research Line at Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia - IIT invites qualified applicants to submit their CV’s for a Computer Vision Engineer position in Genoa (Italy) under the supervision of Dr. Alessio Del Bue.

PAVIS Research Line is actively developing an artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure to understand our physical space and the human behaviors within it.
The focus of the group is on creating intelligent systems that jointly accomplish two main goals:
 -  Spatial AI: Perceive and understand autonomously the real physical world, both static and dynamic, with its corresponding spatial semantic (where are things, what is their function, which is the dynamic of the scene).
 -  Social AI: Perceive and understand humans and their behaviors as observed by cameras in relation to the physical spaces they are interacting with.

This open position is financed in the context of a commercial collaboration focused on 3D perception of spaces, object segmentation and object classification.
The candidate will have the opportunity to work on real and simulated scenarios using color and depth technologies alongside with state of the art algorithms and computational models,
with the goal of designing and prototyping working solutions for the problems under investigation.

The skills requested for the position are the following:
- Bachelor/Master degree on Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Robotics or related Engineering fields;
- 2 years relevant experience on implementing and deploying Computer Vision and Deep Learning algorithms;
- Experience on Deep Learning models training and ML dataset management;
- Strong proficiency in programming languages, in particular Python and C++ and hands on experience with libraries such as OpenCV, Tensorflow, and PyTorch;
- Good knowledge of English language.

The following skills are considered a plus for this position:
- Experience in working with hardware systems including sensors such as RGBD cameras, depth sensors, LIDAR, etc;
- Experience in working with object detection and segmentation algorithms;
- Experience with fast prototyping of code and hardware;
- Good communication and teamwork skills.
- The successful candidate will be offered a competitive salary commensurate to qualifications and experience.

Please submit your application using the online form https://iit.taleo.net/careersection/ex/jobdetail.ftl?lang=it&job=21000042
