[Remote] Perception Engineer – Computer Vision & Edge AI

Willow is seeking a remote Perception Engineer to build and own computer vision systems for autonomous security robots. This role involves developing object detection, multi-object tracking, cross-camera ReID, and Vision-Language Model pipelines, while optimizing them for edge deployment on NVIDIA Jetson devices. The engineer will work across the full perception stack, from real-time video pipelines to production-ready machine learning systems.

• Design and deploy cross-camera object re-identification (ReID) systems for people and vehicles
• Build high-performance object detection and multi-object tracking pipelines
• Integrate Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for scene understanding and operator intelligence
• Develop real-time video pipelines using RTSP and WebRTC
• Optimize AI models for NVIDIA Jetson and edge devices using TensorRT, quantization, pruning, and latency optimization
• Evaluate, fine-tune, and train computer vision models where required
• Build scalable image and video data pipelines for training and evaluation
• Collaborate with Robotics and Software Engineering teams to integrate perception into autonomous systems

• 3+ years of experience building and deploying production Computer Vision or Machine Learning systems
• Strong expertise in object detection, multi-object tracking, and cross-camera ReID
