Are you an experienced Computer Vision engineer ready to take the next step in your career? This is an opportunity to lead a high-performing Computer Vision & Robotics team developing real-time image processing and autonomy software for spacecraft and ground systems.

You'll play a key role in advancing technologies that enable close-proximity operations and on-orbit servicing, designing algorithms for object detection, tracking, and pose estimation in some of the most challenging environments imaginable.

What You'll Do:

Leadership & Team Development

  • Lead a team of Computer Vision engineers, providing technical guidance and mentorship.
  • Oversee project delivery, ensuring quality, performance, and timely execution.
  • Collaborate with GNC, Software, and Systems teams across multiple mission projects.
  • Foster innovation and continuous learning within a collaborative engineering culture.

Technical Responsibilities

  • Design and implement computer vision modules for spacecraft navigation and autonomy.
  • Develop and benchmark algorithms for pose estimation, tracking, and visual perception.
  • Deliver efficient, high-quality CV software suitable for real-time and safety-critical applications.
  • Contribute to simulation, verification, and validation of vision-based navigation systems.

About You

  • Degree (BSc/MSc) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Robotics, or similar.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in computer vision algorithm design and implementation.
  • 3+ years leading or mentoring a technical team.
  • Strong programming skills in Python, C/C++, or Matlab, with experience in OpenCV, TensorFlow, or PyTorch.
  • Solid understanding of deep learning, sensor fusion, and image-based navigation.
  • Familiarity with version control (Git) and modern software development practices.
  • A passion for space systems and a desire to shape the next generation of autonomous s

Desirable:

  • Experience in vision-based navigation for space or robotics applications.
  • Knowledge of rigid-body dynamics, kinematics, and embedded systems development.
  • Experience in CI/CD, TDD, and real-time or safety-critical environments.

What's On Offer

  • Flexible hybrid working around core hours
  • 25 days annual leave (rising with service) + bank holidays
  • Private healthcare, life insurance, and long-term sick pay
  • Optional 9/75 working pattern
  • Relocation and visa support (where applicable)
  • State-of-the-art facilities and a genuinely collaborative environment
  • Regular team and social events

This is a unique opportunity to lead cutting-edge work at the intersection of computer vision, robotics, and space, contributing directly to technologies that are shaping a sustainable future in orbit.
