Computational Imaging Researcher

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.
