Computer Vision Engineer

What  does a Computer Vision Engineer do?    

A Computer Vision Engineer develops and implements computer vision  algorithms and applications. They work with large datasets of images and  videos to train and test computer vision models. They are also responsible  for optimizing computer vision algorithms to work in real-time and on various  hardware platforms. Computer Vision Engineers work closely with other engineers and data  scientists to develop and integrate computer vision applications into larger  systems.    

‍

What is the typical background of a Computer Vision Engineer?    

To become a Computer Vision Engineer, a bachelor's degree in computer  science, electrical engineering or a related field is usually required. Many Computer Vision Engineers also have a master's degree or PhD in computer  vision, machine learning, or a related field. They should have a strong  background in computer programming, mathematics, and statistics. Experience  with computer vision frameworks such as OpenCV, TensorFlow, and PyTorch is  also highly desirable.
