Visual Perception & Motion Estimation Engineer

At Embention, we have been driven since 2007 by a clear mission: Enabling drones to populate our skies.

The core of our company lies in our R&D team, made up of over 100 multidisciplinary engineers. Together with the rest of the organization, we are a team of 180 professionals united by a single goal: to innovate and push the boundaries of UAV technology.

Following a record-breaking 2025 marked by strong stock market performance, the launch of industrial production in the United Arab Emirates, and the establishment of a subsidiary in the United States, we are looking to continue expanding our team and driving continuous R&D development.

If you are passionate about our mission and want to be part of this journey, we are looking for you.

• 
  Design and maintain the geometric validation module of the perception system.
• Ensure the spatial and temporal consistency of detections generated by the AI model.
• Extract and validate relevant structural information from the scene to reinforce the reliability of detections.
• Estimate relative motion between ownship and intruders from image sequences.
• Contribute to the robust calculation of dynamic metrics such as Time-To-Collision (TTC).
• Reject inconsistent or spurious detections through geometric validation.
• Evaluate the applicability of pose estimation and reconstruction techniques when they provide operational value.
• Merge geometric information with the output of the AI-based detector to improve stability and reduce false positives.
• Optimise system behaviour under real-time constraints.

• 
  Training in computer engineering, telecommunications or similar.
• Experience in OpenCV, C++ or Python.

• 
  Classical computer vision.
• Epipolar geometry.
• Projective geometry.
• Pose estimation.
• Multi-view reconstruction.
• SVD and its numerical properties.
• RANSAC.
• Bundle adjustment.
• Iterative methods such as Levenberg-Marquardt.
• Optical flow (Lucas-Kanade).
• Experience in embedded applications or autonomous systems.

Embention is an equal opportunity employer. Recruitment decisions are made based on experience, qualifications, and alignment with role requirements.
