Computer Vision Research Engineer/Scientist

Modsy is a fast growing startup that is reinventing the way we design and shop for our homes. Leveraging ground-breaking 3D technology and a seamless customer experience, Modsy guides you through a few simple steps to capture, redesign, and transform your home. You receive back a catalog quality lifelike version of your room rendered in 3D that is fully shoppable based on your style, budget, and functional needs. The future of home design and furniture buying is changing and Modsy is leading the way.

As a company, Modsy is pioneering a remote-first, distributed team culture. We pride ourselves in our inclusive, diverse environment where exceptional talent helps our customers create their dream home.

Virtually recreating customers’ exact rooms in 3D presents a tremendous technical challenge. You’ll be working on problems that lie at the intersection of Computer Vision, Machine Learning and Computer Graphics. You will develop cutting-edge algorithms for reconstructing CAD-quality 3D models from RGB(D) and inertial sensors that will be deployed at a massive scale. You will be developing customer-facing and back-end components, and internal tools. You will learn and adopt the latest innovations in the field and contribute to our engineering team’s technological excellence.
