Director of Computer Vision and Perception

San Jose, California
B GARAGE

B GARAGE was founded in 2017 by two PhD graduates from Stanford University. After having spent over five years researching robotics, computer vision, aeronautics, and drone autonomy, the co-founders set their minds on building a future where aerial robots would become an integral part of our daily lives without anyone necessarily piloting them. Together, our common goal is to redefine the user experience of drones and to expand the horizon for the use of drones.

The B GARAGE team is looking for an enthusiastic, proactive, and collaborative director of computer vision and perception to support the launch of intelligent aerial robots and autonomously sustainable ecosystems.
