Kitware is actively seeking researchers and software developers to join our Computer Vision team.  Kitware has extensive expertise developing robust solutions for real-world data and is actively working with industry and government agencies on a variety of vision-based projects. 

Founded in 2007, the group has won more than fifteen contracts in video event and activity recognition, moving object detection and tracking, motion pattern learning and anomaly detection, functional object recognition, video compression, 3D reconstruction and other areas.  Our efforts are sponsored by premier government R&D sponsors such as DARPA and AFRL, and include prime contracts as well as SBIRs and STTRs.  We have active subcontracts and collaborations with four major defense companies and ten universities with internationally-recognized computer vision faculty. 

This is an opportunity for PhD-level candidates to contribute their previously demonstrated creativity and research experience in solving hard problems using realistic video and imagery.  A strong publication record in major vision conferences is expected.

Kitware team members enjoy our small company environment, flexibility in work assignments, and the high levels of independence and responsibility. Besides a great work environment, our comprehensive benefits package includes flexible working hours, six weeks paid time off, a personal computer hardware budget, 401(k), health insurance, Flexible Spending Account (FSA), life insurance, short- and long-term disability, visa processing, a generous compensation plan (that compensates employees for all hours worked – not just the first 40), bonus, and free coffee, drinks and snacks.

For extremely talented researchers, we are always hiring.  However, due to contractual restrictions, significant preference is being given to candidates that are US Citizens.  Please email your cover letter and resume to jobs@kitware.com for immediate consideration.
