Are you enthusiastic about pushing the boundaries of space technology and ready to contribute to a mission with global impact?

Holt Executive are currently partnered with a global leader in Space and Satellite sustainability, a dynamic and rapidly growing technology innovator who are making hugely positive contributions to tackle the growing problem of orbital space debris.

They are seeking a Senior Computer Vision Engineer to join their team of Computer Vision specialists in addressing mission-critical challenges that depend on a highly advanced Computer Vision subsystem.

This technology is essential for enabling spacecraft to execute complex tasks like rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking with uncontrolled, often unpredictable objects.

As part of the global team, the successful Senior Computer Vision Engineer will oversee all aspects of the Computer Vision subsystem, including algorithms, simulations, and hardware.

Your responsibilities will include designing and prototyping Computer Vision algorithms for their missions and supporting validation and testing efforts.

Key Responsibilities for the Senior Computer Vision Engineer:

- Design and develop novel computer vision algorithms for space object detection and tracking, and 6 Degrees of Freedom pose estimation for space applications.
- Support CV hardware procurement for missions.
- Contribute to CV verification & validation planning and execution.
- Support the CV subsystem test activities including hardware-in-the-loop.
- Support the integration and testing of CV software implementation.
- Support the CV hardware procurement activities working collaboratively with vendors and supplier chain management engineers.
- Collaborate with other engineering disciplines (Systems, Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC), Flight Dynamics, etc.) in the planning, design and development of missions/systems to ensure software and hardware performance and compatibility.
