Job Description:

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.

Job Responsibility:

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

Requirements:

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

Nice to have:

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
