If you are a computer vision, computer graphics or C++ developer and are looking for a new opportunity with an exciting venture backed company — look no further. Paracosm is developing an exciting software platform leveraging the newest wave of 3D hardware capture devices in order to build a perceptual map for devices (and humans!) to navigate within.
Job description provided by Paracosm follows — feel free to reach out to Amir (email below) or to me and I will pass your c.v. along:

About Paracosm:
Paracosm is solving machine perception by generating 3D maps of every interior space on earth.
We are developing a large-scale 3D reconstruction and perception platform that will enable robots and augmented reality apps to fully interact with their environment. You can see some of our fun demos here:vimeo.com/paracosm3d/demo-reel (pass: MINDBLOWN ) and here: paracosm.io/nvidia
We are a venture-backed startup based in Gainesville, FL, and were original development partners on Google’s Project Tango. We are currently working closely with companies like iRobot to commercialize our technology.
Job Role:
We are looking for senior C++ developers, computer-vision engineers, and computer graphics engineers to help us implement our next-gen 3D-reconstruction algorithms. Our algorithms sit at the intersection of SLAM+Computer Vision+Computer Graphics.
As part of this sweet gig, you’ll be working alongside a team of Computer Vision PhD’s to:
* design & implement & test cloud-based 3D-reconstruction algorithms
* develop real-time front-end interfaces designed to run on tablets (Google Tango, Intel RealSense) and AR headsets
* develop real-time front-end interfaces designed to run on tablets (Google Tango, Intel RealSense) and AR headsets
* experiment with cutting edge machine-learning techniques to perform object segmentation and detection
Skills:
Proficiency with C++ is pretty critical, ideally you’ll be experienced enough to even teach us a few tricks! Familiarity with complex algorithms is a huge plus, ideally one of the following categories:
– Surface reconstruction + meshing
– 3D dense reconstruction from depth cameras
– SLAM and global optimization techniques
– Visual odometry and sensor fusion
– Localization and place recognition
– Perception: Object segmentation and recognition
Work Environment:
Teamwork, collaboration and exploration of risky new ideas and concepts is a core part of our culture. We all work closely together to implement new approaches that push the state of the art.
We have fresh, healthy & delicious lunch catered every day by our personal chef, a kitchen full of snacks, and backlog of crazy hard problems we need solved.
We actively encourage people on our team to publish their work and present at conferences (we also offer full stipends for attending 2 conferences each year).
Did I mention we’re big on the team work thing? The entire team has significant input into company strategy and product direction, and everyone’s opinion and voice is valued.
Work will take place at our offices in Gainesville, FL
