ppbScandit Italy /b /ppbSenior Computer Vision Engineer /b /ppScandit gives people superpowers. Whether enabling delivery drivers to make quicker deliveries, matching a patient with their medication, or allowing retailers to make store operations more efficient, our technology automates workflows. It provides actionable insights to help businesses in a variety of industries. Join us as we continue to expand, grow, innovate, and help take Scandit to the next level. /ppWe are now building a new generation of technology for retail: a computer vision–driven system that helps retailers to increase their profit margins through better operational insight and automation. As a bSenior Computer Vision Engineer /b, you will play a leading role in taking this product from 0 to 1, owning key technical decisions and delivering production-grade vision capabilities end to end. /ppYou will own the technical direction for action recognition in real‑world retail environments: from defining how we collect and annotate video data, to prototyping and evaluating models, to iterating on precision, recall and end-to-end alert latency under production‑like conditions. You'll work closely with product, data, and engineering stakeholders to validate the riskiest assumptions quickly and cost‑effectively. /ppIf you enjoy turning ambiguous, high‑impact problems into working ML products – and have experience building commercial computer vision systems for action recognition, autonomous checkout, worker safety, or similar applications – we'd love to talk. /ph3bAbout the role /b /h3pAs a bSenior Computer Vision Engineer /b, you will be responsible for leading the technical discovery and early development of Scandit's new solution – from validating the riskiest assumptions to building and iterating on the first end-to-end prototypes. You will work closely with product, other engineering teams, and external stakeholders to turn real-world video data into robust, privacy‑aware computer vision models that can operate in live retail environments. /ppThis role connects cutting‑edge CV/ML research with real‑world product constraints – requiring both deep technical expertise and a pragmatic, experimental approach to building production‑ready systems under ambiguity and time pressure.
/ppbWhat you will do /b /pulliDefining and prioritizing technical experiments to validate key risks (e.g. precision, recall, latency) for computer vision models in retail stores /liliDesigning and implementing end-to-end CV/ML pipelines on real-world video data, from data ingestion and preprocessing through model training, evaluation, and deployment /liliSetting up and refining the human annotation workflow to create high‑quality training and test datasets from video streams /liliCollaborating with product managers and engineering leaders to clarify requirements, align on milestones, and translate business needs into technical roadmaps /liliSelecting, adapting, and optimizing state‑of‑the‑art computer vision architectures for suspicious behavior and action detection in unconstrained environments /liliProviding technical leadership in the space of video‑based computer vision applications, helping shape best practices and future hiring for the team /li /ulh3bWho you are /b /h3pWe are looking for a senior computer vision / machine learning engineer who has successfully built and shipped real‑world products, ideally involving action recognition on video. You combine deep hands‑on technical expertise with a pragmatic, experimental mindset and are comfortable working in a high‑ambiguity, 0→1 product environment. You should enjoy collaborating closely with product and engineering stakeholders, shaping the technical direction, and iterating quickly on ideas to validate the riskiest assumptions. /pulliUniversity degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics or a related technical field (advanced degree is a plus but not mandatory) /liliSignificant hands‑on experience in computer vision and machine learning, including designing, training, evaluating and deploying models in production /liliProven track record of building end‑to‑end CV/ML systems from 0→1 (ideally commercial products rather than purely academic projects)
/liliStrong expertise with video‑based pipelines and human action or behavior recognition (e.g. retail, autonomous checkout or similar domains) /liliSolid software engineering skills (e.g. Python and modern ML/CV frameworks) and experience working with real‑world, noisy data /liliAbility to work in a dynamic, high‑uncertainty environment, prioritize experiments, and iterate quickly on technical approaches /liliAbility to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams (e.g. product, backend, data, operations) and communicate complex technical topics clearly in English (B2 level or higher) /liliEligible to work in the hiring location /li /ulpNice to have: /pulliExperience with privacy‑aware or GDPR‑compliant data pipelines, especially for video data /liliBackground in building or selecting annotation tools and workflows for computer vision training data /liliPrior work on retail, autonomous stores using computer vision /li /ulh3bWhat we offer /b /h3pHere are just some of the reasons why people choose to build their careers at Scandit: /pulliA highly skilled team and a fun environment where you can put your enthusiasm for cutting‑edge technologies to use /liliHackathons /liliFlexible, office, hybrid or home working /liliPeople‑first culture /liliGlobal team outings /liliFestive/end of year all company celebrations /liliYour birthday off /liliAn attractive individual equity plan in a high growth company /liliWe are certified as a b“Great Place to Work” /b in 7 countries! /liliExcellent office infrastructure, optimized for hybrid working in Zurich, Warsaw, Tampere, and London. /liliExcellent support for remote work across Switzerland, Finland, Poland, UK, Italy and Germany /liliSpecific benefits related to the location you are joining /li /ulpAt Scandit we strive to create an inclusive environment that empowers our employees.
