About Merlin:
Merlin is a venture backed aerospace startup building a non-human pilot to enable both reduced crew and uncrewed flight. Backed by some of the world’s leading investors, Merlin is scaling alongside our customers to begin leveraging autonomy today to solve some of aviation’s biggest challenges.

About You: 
You’re a computer vision specialist who loves turning raw sensor data into actionable insights. You thrive at the intersection of algorithms, hardware, and real-world deployment—designing systems that can see, understand, and interact with the physical world. You’re comfortable moving between high-level model development and low-level camera calibration, and you take pride in building robust solutions that work reliably outside the lab.
 
  • Develop and implement object detection and identification algorithms for real-time applications.
  • Design and optimize depth sensing and 3D mapping pipelines, integrating data from cameras and other sensors.
  • Specify, configure, and calibrate camera systems, including selection of optics, sensors, and hardware.
  • Develop tools and processes for camera calibration, synchronization, and data acquisition.
  • Fuse data from multiple cameras/sensors to improve accuracy and robustness in perception systems.
  • Collaborate with robotics, controls, and systems engineers to integrate computer vision into robotic platforms.
  • Conduct experiments, evaluate performance, and refine algorithms for accuracy, efficiency, and scalability.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or related field.
  • Strong experience with computer vision algorithms (object detection, tracking, identification, SLAM).
  • Proficiency in depth sensing and 3D reconstruction techniques (stereo vision, structured light, ToF, LiDAR integration).
  • Hands-on experience with camera setup, specification, and calibration (intrinsic/extrinsic, distortion models, multi-camera rigs).
  • Proficiency with computer vision libraries and frameworks (OpenCV, PyTorch/TensorFlow, CUDA).
  • Experience developing in C++ and/or Python for high-performance vision applications.
  • Strong understanding of camera hardware and imaging pipelines.
  • Ability to design experiments, analyze results, and iterate quickly in a collaborative engineering environment.
  • Experience with ROS/ROS2 integration for robotic vision.
  • Familiarity with real-time embedded systems or GPU optimization.
  • Knowledge of multi-sensor fusion (IMU, LiDAR, radar) for perception.
  • Background in calibration automation and large-scale data collection pipelines.
