Computer Vision Engineer

A Computer Vision Engineer develops systems that enable computers to interpret and understand visual information from the world. You might work in technology companies, research institutions, or specialised industries like healthcare or automotive. Computer Vision Engineers focus on creating algorithms and models that analyse images and video. You’ll work on tasks such as object detection, image recognition, and video analysis.

Computer Vision Engineers play a key role in advancing technologies that rely on visual data. You’ll need strong skills in programming, mathematics, and machine learning. You’ll collaborate with data scientists, software developers, and engineers to ensure that visual systems perform accurately and efficiently.
