HavocAI - United States
Hiring: Embedded Perception Engineer Company: HavocAI Location: United States Job Posted Time: 2026-09-11 10:29:34 Target Skills & Keywords : C++, Computer Vision, Data Pipeline, Deep Learning, Embedded Systems, FPGA, Linux, Machine Learning, ONNX, PyTorch, Python, TensorFlow, TensorRT, Triton About the job Experience: •3+ years developing and deploying computer vision or perception systems in C++ and/or Python on Linux Required Skills: •As an Embedded Perception Engineer, you will own how our autonomous systems perceive and understand the world — in real time, in operational environments, and under demanding maritime conditions. •This role goes beyond model training. You will architect, deploy, and optimize perception pipelines that run reliably on embedded edge hardware. You’ll work across vision models, sensor fusion, and high-performance inference to deliver robust situational awareness to autonomous surface vessels executing real-world missions. •If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy squeezing maximum performance from embedded AI systems, and want to see your work field-tested and mission-proven, this role offers immediate and meaningful impact. •Operational familiarity with maritime or aerial sensor environments •Knowledge of autonomy frameworks (ROS2, MOOS-IvP) •Operational familiarity with military systems and defense acquisition processes •You won’t just build models — you will build perception systems that operate in real-world, contested environments. Your work will directly influence the reliability, safety, and mission success of autonomous platforms deployed at sea. Qualifications: •Own end-to-end perception pipelines deployed to operational systems •Deliver high-reliability solutions aligned with mission requirements •Vision Model Development •Design, train, and optimize perception models for maritime environments •Develop object detection, classification, and tracking systems •Interface directly with large vision models (ViT, CLIP, SAM, or similar) •Fuse multi-modal sensor data (camera, radar, lidar) into unified perception outputs •Partner cross-functionally with hardware teams to select and integrate sensors •Develop and validate low-level sensor drivers for high-integrity data pipelines •Deploy models using NVIDIA Triton Inference Server Compensation: •100% Employer paid Health, Dental and Vision Insurance for you and your families Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
