Nod Labs - https://nod.com - Mountain View CA - Full Time, possible remote work.
We believe our motion and tracking technology will fundamentally change how we interact with computers and our environment. We are enabling tracking on mobile devices.
Yourself: Self starter and mostly importantly a finisher - pick something up and deliver without supervision. You will be a manager with a team size of one - you. You will need to pick the next problem on the way to achieve our goals and solve it. You could be working on our custom OS twiddling GPIOs or you could be hacking on the backend or polishing off our iOS app. You will need to hold a lot of complexity in your head and have solid CS fundamentals. For what we do, Google may not have all the answers to your questions, github may not have any such sample code and Stackoverflow may have a vaguely related question with no replies, but you will be responsible for solving the problem.
We are currently looking for
a) Computer Vision Engineers: Ideally a PhD in CV or robotics. Just using thirdparty libraries (such as opencv) will not get you a job at Nod. You need to understand and possibly develop your own algorithms and optimize it.
b) Game developer with Unity/Unreal experience. Will require working in NDK/C++ land on Android.
Team: ex-(Apple, Blackberry, Facebook, Google, Lab126, NASA, Samsung). Approximately 1/3rd of the team are PhDs (or PhDs on “pause”) in various fields (Math, Physics, CS) from MIT, Stanford, CMU etc.
