Zella Group | Specialist AI/ML Talent Labs
About The Role:
As an AI Robotics CV Engineer, you are building a robot that must understand the 3D world around it with the same fluency a human does; from precise object localization to spatial reasoning across dynamic environments. This role focuses on the geometric and structural vision systems that underpin everything the robot perceives and acts on.
What You'll Do
Design and train deep learning models for 3D scene understanding, geometric reasoning, and spatial reconstruction
Develop vision pipelines for object detection, pose estimation, depth perception, and scene segmentation on-robot
Build and iterate on occupancy and world-representation networks that operate in real-time on edge hardware
Create automated data generation pipelines to produce high-quality training data at scale from fleet/robot deployments
Research and implement state-of-the-art techniques from 3D vision, NeRF, Gaussian splatting, and related fields
Work closely with hardware and robotics teams to ensure vision systems operate robustly under real-world conditions
What You'll Bring
MS/PhD or equivalent experience in Computer Vision, Robotics, or Machine Learning
Strong background in 3D computer vision — stereo, depth estimation, point clouds, SLAM, or structure-from-motion
Proficiency in PyTorch or JAX; experience training large-scale models end-to-end
Demonstrated ability to take models from research to production deployment
Experience with camera calibration, multi-camera systems, and sensor fusion
Publications or shipped products in geometric vision, embodied AI, or autonomous systems preferred
