RESPONSIBILITIES:

As an Image Analysis Scientist, you will develop computer vision and image understanding algorithms that enable automated interpretation and information extraction from images. You will be part of a group that applies image analysis to a diversity of imaging modalities and problem domains in medical and industrial imaging. You will conduct research on real-world commercial applications and translate innovative ideas and algorithms to prototype software and solutions.

You will identify technology gaps, devise methods, and develop prototypes, employing an experiment-and-learn approach to design jugular experiments that assess the feasibility of your novel research ideas and provide quick verification. You will develop innovative solutions and demonstrate them through the implementation of prototypes and systems. You will develop technology that solves business problems ranging from services to manufacturing to healthcare.

You will:

Leverage your image analysis and computer vision expertise to invent and implement algorithms for detection, segmentation, recognition, semantic understanding, and inference from images and image ensembles.

• Employ software libraries, tools, practices, and know-how to implement and validate research prototypes for your algorithms that achieve problem objectives.
• Design evaluation criteria and automated methodology to test, validate, and refine your algorithms.
• Develop solutions and execute in a team environment to meet project needs in a timely fashion.
• Collaborate with researchers from multiple disciplines such as biologists, radiologists and material science and manufacturing, as well as related analytics disciplines such as statistics, machine learning, and operations research to develop systems and solutions.
• Effectively communicate and articulate problem formulation, solution details, and results through by writing papers and giving presentations.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Doctorate degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Applied Mathematics or related field with knowledge and experience in image processing or computer vision algorithm development and implementation
• Solid publication record in peer-reviewed journals and conferences in computer vision, image processing, and relevant application fields.
• Software skills demonstrating experience in implementing image processing and computer vision algorithms and pipeline.
• Must be willing to travel a minimum of two weeks per year.
• Legal authorization to work in the U.S. is required. We will not sponsor individuals at the Masters level for employment visas, now or in the future, for this job opening.
• Must be willing to work out of an office located in Niskayuna, NY.
• Must be willing to take a drug test and submit to a background investigation as part of the selection process.

Must be 18 years or older.
