Computer Vision Engineer

About Synclair Vision

Synclair Vision develops the "eyes and brains" of next-generation autonomous systems. We create advanced vision and AI solutions for drones, serving both defense and civil applications.

We are a fast-growing deep-tech company based in Linköping, Sweden, with the ambition to become a leading supplier of intelligent vision systems for autonomous platforms. Our team of 10 brings together expertise in optics, AI, embedded systems, and system integration, and now we are looking for someone to join us in expanding our computer vision capabilities.

At Synclair Vision, you will join a highly technical, down-to-earth and ambitious team where ideas quickly move from concept to prototype to real-world testing. We work together to set and achieve goals, creating a fast paced environment where things move fast. 

The Role

As a Computer Vision Engineer at Synclair Vision, you will play a key role in shaping and delivering the vision systems that power our platform. You will work closely with our team to bring cutting-edge vision solutions into robust, deployable products.

Working as a computer vision engineer at Synclair Vision means that your days and tasks may vary. Typical responsibilities include working with tracking algorithms, computer-vision–based machine learning, and implementing and optimizing vision algorithms for edge devices. Some days you may focus deeply on developing computer vision algorithms, while on others your work may shift toward supporting prototyping, testing, or team tasks that benefit the wider project.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on involvement across software development, prototyping, and field testing.

Key responsibilities

• Drive development of computer vision systems for our platform
• Work closely with our AI and optics team to bring research into real products
• Shape our software/hardware integration strategy for edge devices
• Experiment, prototype, and help define our product roadmap as we scale

Your profile

We are looking for someone who is curious, collaborative, pragmatic, and enjoys working hands-on with software development. You are comfortable in an environment where not everything is fully defined and where initiative is valued.

• Education in computer science, electronics, computer vision, or related engineering roles
• Experience in computer vision
• Experience working with C++
• Experience in Linux environments
• Solid understanding of computer vision concepts
• Experience using Git and standard development workflows
• Strong English communication skills

Nice to have:

• Hands-on experience with edge devices such as NVIDIA Jetson, ARM-based systems, or Raspberry Pi
• Basic knowledge of deep learning frameworks (e.g. PyTorch or TensorFlow)
• Experience with NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit
• Experience with real-time systems
• Experience with sensor fusion
• Background in robotics, drones, or autonomous systems
• Experience working in defense-related or regulated industries

What we offer

• A key role in a rapidly growing deep-tech startup
• Significant technical ownership and influence on product development
• Flexible working hours
• Office and workshop space in Linköping
• The opportunity to work on technology with real-world impact in both defense and civil sectors
• Sponsorship for Swedish drone pilot certification (A1/A3)
