Job Description:

The CSIRO Mining Geoscience Team researches and develops technologies for mining, manufacturing, space and other industries to improve safety and productivity. We have a proven track record and are a leading provider of software and hardware to mining professionals such as geologists, geotechnical and blast engineers and surveyors. We pioneered the use of photogrammetric systems for rock mass characterisation and slope stability assessment, geophysical logging and micro-seismic monitoring by the Australian mining industry. We have also developed sensing technologies that are now being utilised or trialled in medical, aeronautical and space industries. Our success has led to long-term and ongoing commercial partnerships with leading technology providers. The work is underpinned by many years of experience with both 2D and 3D imaging systems, geophysical sensing and imaging technologies. We have successfully patented and commercialised innovative sensor and analytics systems.

Job Responsibility:

Design and develop cutting-edge algorithms and fused sensor systems for mining and aerospace applications
Contribute cutting-edge R&D including algorithm design and sensor fusion system designs, while using technologies such as computer vision, lidar, time-of-flight, radar, accelerometers, and other sensing modalities, focussing on multi-sensor monitoring systems

Requirements:

A PhD (or an equivalent combination of qualifications and research experience) in a relevant field such as physics, mathematics, computer science, with experience in computer vision
A demonstrated publication history of authorship on scientific papers in peer reviewed journals and/or reports, grant applications or inventorship on patent applications
Following the degree or qualification, at least several years’ experience in: Prototyping, designing, testing, and documenting algorithms in computer vision applications
Proven track record of successfully obtaining research and development funding from government grants, private industry, or other external sources to create and lead projects and grow innovation
Demonstrated ability to generate novel ideas and develop cutting-edge sensing system technologies that have successfully been implemented in products or solutions

Nice to have:

Expertise in development and deployment of photogrammetric, computer vision, LiDAR, time-of-flight, radar, accelerometers, photogrammetry systems (software and hardware) in industrial settings, including multi-sensor systems
Designing, testing, and documenting robust, decoupled and testable software in a related field, including version control, issue tracking, test automation, and containerisation
Experience with open-source libraries such as OpenCV and Point Cloud Library (PCL), and languages such as MATLAB, Python, C++
Extensive experience driving the commercialisation process from concept to market, including product development, market analysis, and strategic partnerships

What we offer:

15.4% superannuation
Domestic relocation support provided
Flexible working arrangements
Range of leave entitlements, benefits and career development opportunities
