About the role
Janea Systems is looking for a Senior Computer Vision Engineer to join our team and support one of our clients in the sports analytics industry. In this role, you will help design, improve, and scale computer vision systems that transform sports video into actionable insights. The work will focus on video-based detection, tracking, camera calibration, homography, field registration, identity association, and adapting existing models and pipelines to new video sources, camera configurations, stadiums, and video-quality conditions.
This is a highly hands-on technical role for someone who combines strong computer vision fundamentals with practical engineering experience and the ability to drive initiatives from experimentation through production deployment. The ideal candidate is comfortable working independently, identifying weak points in existing systems, designing practical improvements, and collaborating with engineering, data, and platform teams to deliver production-ready solutions.
