Machine vision is a fascinating field where optics, sensors and deep learning come together. Most projects Kapernikov tackles are not solvable by off-the-shelf machine vision products. We typically start new projects with a literature review to see which recent breakthroughs could help us solve our client’s challenge. Combining recent research with our own extensive experience in machine learning for industrial applications allows us to build a proof of concept to demonstrate to our clients how a machine vision solution can solve their operational challenges.

That is why we are looking for new machine vision and machine learning engineers who can do more than just training a model with a new dataset. With a thorough understanding of both classical machine learning and deep learning, loving to follow the state-of-the-art. Balancing between quickly trying multiple approaches to see what actually works with real world data and focusing on an approach to make the most of it. Loving to see real-world problems being solved by a model you developed and trained.

We offer you an interesting job in a modern company

• A full-time job in a pleasant working environment where all of your talents are appreciated.
• The Kapernikov HQ is in Leuven and we have a coworking place close to Brussels Midi station which is a wonderful, informal place to collaborate. However, we often work at the customer’s site, which could be anywhere in Belgium (albeit most often around Brussels).
• Challenging problems that require your innovative thinking. Cool projects where the software you write actually controls part of the world.
• The chance to get paid to do what you love. We offer a competitive salary and many fringe benefits.
• Education and training to perform your job well. We aim to get people up to date with modern technologies and provide time and budget to take courses or go to congresses. 
• A lot of freedom to organize your work the way that suits you best.
• A vibrant atmosphere with room for new ideas, experimentation and cross-fertilization with other Kapernikov consultants. We are a friendly team to spar with and learn from.
• Kapernikov is a self-organized company with sociocracy as toolbox, meaning decisions are taken and implemented by everyone as equals. We are not the classic organisation with a strict hierarchy. Our employees come first.
