At Alpine Eagle, we are a team of specialists with backgrounds in defence, aerospace engineering and machine learning, building the first airborne, swarm-based system to provide protection against the rising drone threat. We believe that recent conflicts have shown the malicious and disruptive potential of drones in both civilian and defense scenarios. In addition, we are convinced that the next step in counter-drone is air-to-air. We want to ensure that all governments and institutions that believe in personal freedom and the rule of law have cutting edge solutions to protect against this rising threat.
We offer a work environment that is inclusive and open, with a flat hierarchy, and a purpose-driven team. We want to reinforce a culture where great ideas can flourish, and great people collaborate.
As the Head of Computer Vision Engineering , you will play a pivotal role in advancing Alpine Eagle’s drone technology. You will lead and inspire our computer vision and perception team, shaping the future of our UAV solutions. This is a hands-on leadership role where you will develop and optimize computer vision algorithms, drive perception architecture, and collaborate across teams to deliver next-generation drone capabilities.
Define milestones aligned with company goals, establish systematic development processes, and ensure timely delivery of innovative computer vision capabilities.
Develop real-time object detection and classification, multi-object tracking across frames and scenes, and visual SLAM for outdoor navigation.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deploy robust solutions in production environments.
Develop advanced computer vision algorithms for drone applications such as object detection, tracking, segmentation, and scene understanding.
Evaluate and benchmark models using real-world datasets and simulations.
Lead by example, mentor engineers, and foster a culture of growth, collaboration, and technical excellence.
Continuously research and implement state-of-the-art computer vision techniques, with a focus on aerial and C-UAS applications.
Promote best practices through code reviews, maintain high code quality, and ensure clear, consistent documentation.
At Alpine Eagle, we are committed to diversity and equal opportunity. We welcome applications from all individuals regardless of ethnic origin, gender, religion, disability, age, or sexual identity.
