An innovative company within Quantum Security are looking for a skilled Image Processing Engineer to join their rapidly growing R&D team,
Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you'll be involved in the full lifecycle of algorithm development - from processing experimental data to building and optimising algorithms that can operate under real-world conditions. If you have a strong background in image processing, optics, and camera technologies, and enjoy working at the intersection of physics and software, I'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Designing and optimising algorithms to analyse quantum emission signatures and related data.
- Collaborating closely with physicists, engineers, and software developers to ensure seamless integration of your work into smartphone applications
- Testing and validating algorithms under varied conditions to guarantee robustness and reliability
- Analysing data from materials scientists and hardware teams to ground your work in physical reality
- Documenting designs and clearly communicating results to development teams
- Staying on top of advances in machine learning, optics, and camera tech to keep improving performance
- Helping to define experimental setups and data collection processes to support algorithm development
What You'll Need
- 4+ years of experience developing algorithms in the context of imaging, optical sensing, or spectroscopy
- An advanced degree (MSc or PhD) in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field - or equivalent industry experience
- Strong grasp of optical physics or quantum optics, especially in fluorescence and emission analysis
- Proficiency with image processing and optimisation tools (Python, MATLAB, etc.)
- Familiarity with smartphone camera hardware and sensor data acquisition
- A collaborative mindset and experience working with cross-functional teams to deliver production-ready code
