Senior Computer Vision Engineer (Remote) - Manufacturing Venture

Permanent employee, Full-time · Berlin

What we do

We are an exciting new stealth start-up creating the future of manufacturing!

The Manufacturing industry is fundamental to our daily lives. Everything we touch, use, and consume comes from a factory in one form or another. Recent global developments such as the COVID crisis and the Ukrainian-Russia war have brought to light how fragile the supply chain can be. This requires manufacturing companies to be able to react faster to change and transform their operations towards more flexibility. Blue-collar workers are indispensable in this transformation. Unlike robots, humans can learn new and complex tasks very quickly. Especially tasks like assembling products or repairing machines won’t be automated by robots for a long, long time.  

We are on a mission to supercharge blue-collar workers, assisting them in their daily tasks and unlocking manual labor's full productivity and flexibility potential. We firmly believe that humans play a crucial role in factories. Robots won't take over everything but will instead enhance workers' abilities.

Through computer vision and artificial intelligence, we will revolutionize manufacturing by giving workers the tools they need to increase their productivity beyond their current analog limits through tracking, analyzing, and improving manual processes. We are focusing first on assembly processes but will later extend this to more processes such as material consignment or machine repair activities. We will impact society as a whole by making products more affordable and making more efficient use of our planet's resources.

We are financially backed by Merantix, the world’s first AI Venture Studio. Merantix brings some of the world’s most talented engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs (Yale, Oxford, and Harvard alumni), to tackle some of the world’s most challenging problems, such as fighting against breast cancer, developing autonomous vehicles, and making the finance industry more sustainable. Based on the Berlin AI Campus, the studio has founded seven ventures to date and employs more than 150 people between its studio and its ventures. You have the opportunity to become part of this ecosystem and mingle with AI and business experts from various industries.
