    The Company

    Vimaan Robotics is a privately held technology company, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Silicon Valley. Vimaan is driving a paradigm shift in the way computer vision, machine learning, and generative AI is enabled and leveraged for inventory management in the supply chain and logistics industry. Vimaan's proprietary suite of sensors, cameras, AIML platform and software stack provide an end-to-end solution for comprehensive and real-time tracking of inventory within the warehouse. At a time when companies are striving to improve their supply chains; Vimaan is delivering an unprecedented solution to the market. In an industry where ROI is typically recorded in years, our customers are achieving returns in months We are a fast-growing start-up that is well funded by several blue-chip investors with tremendous track records such as NEA, Neotribe, Wing, and Amazon. The company has over 75 employees in various locations in the US and one location in Bengaluru, India.

    Position Description

    Vimaan is looking to a Computer Vision Engineer at its headquarters in Santa Clara to drive the development of computer vision and machine learning algorithms to power our cutting-edge wall-to-wall warehouse inventory tracking and verification platform. This is a unique opportunity to exploit a treasure cove of unseen real-world data coming from a multi-camera perception system and develop large scale computer vision and deep learning models to build a product that creates a disproportionate value for warehouse industry. The role involves hands on CV/ML software development and deployment - from understanding the product requirements, defining Computer Vision functional specs to designing, developing, and deploying CV/ML models in production at scale. The nature of certain projects requires US citizenship so that will be a must have criteria.
