Job Description
Team Description: Kitware's computer vision team is a leader in the creation of cutting-edge algorithms and software for automated image and video analysis. Our solutions embrace deep learning and add measurable value to government agencies, commercial organizations, and academic institutions worldwide. We understand the difficulties in extracting, interpreting, and utilizing information across images, video, metadata, and text, and we recognize the need for robust, affordable solutions. We seek to advance the fields of computer vision and deep learning through research and development and through collaborative projects that build on our open source software platforms, such as VIAME and Telesculptor. About the Projects: NLP and Computer Vision research is increasingly interrelated, with common computational approaches and the increasing availability of text + image/video benchmarks. Likewise, multi-modal domains such as social media and news stories are of increasing interest for applications such as disinformation detection, attribution, and characterization. In addition to this, projects at Kitware require understanding written instructions, including natural language rules. Kitware’s employees have unique opportunities to interact and collaborate directly with customers, visit interesting customer sites, and participate in live field tests and demonstrations. Much of Kitware’s work involves applying state-of-the-art artificial intelligence approaches to dynamic, real-world problems. In this case, you will have the opportunity to contribute your skills to projects focused on national security, making a difference on a daily basis to protect our country. Research and Development Engineers at Kitware also enjoy
benefits
commonly associated with a position in academia, such as support and encouragement for the publication of novel work. We partner with premier government R&D agencies such as DARPA, IARPA, AFRL, NVESD, NOAA, ONR, other branches of the US military, and multiple members of the Intelligence Community on a range of efforts including prime contracts, SBIRs, and STTRs. In addition, we provide commercial services to companies ranging from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Kitware employs an open source business model to foster extended, collaborative communities, and to provide flexible, high-quality technical solutions. If you’ve used CMake, ITK, or VTK, you know our work and the impact it has on the communities we help build. In This Position You Will: • Bring your technical expertise and project management skills to lead small teams of researchers and engineers on advanced R&D projects funded by government and commercial customers. • Collaborate with external, well-known academic and industry researchers in Natural Language Processing, ML, AI, and computer vision. • Lead proposals for new funding from government R&D organizations and/or commercial companies. • Develop and evaluate algorithms to understand the textual content of textual and multi-modal data, and/or perform reasoning on extracted data. • Enjoy support and encouragement for participation in national and international NLP, machine learning, AI, and/or computer vision conferences.
