AI Engineer in Computer Vision

Are you ready to be part of an exciting journey where we together create the future of Candela? Then come and join our journey! We are looking for you with a passion for AI and machine learning!

Candela Speed Boat is leading the transformation towards electric boating. By combining hydrofoils with carbon composites and an all-electric drive train, we reach a speed and range on par with combustion engine boats. Add to that an almost silent ride and unmatched smoothness in high waves. That has been achieved by combining the most advanced concepts of material science, hydrodynamics and control system theory.

Our exciting opportunity

It’s now time to expand the Research & Development team with an experienced AI Engineer in Computer Vision with focus on bringing the first autonomous electric boat to the market.

The plan is to fit a boat with various sensors and have the vessel navigate fully autonomously. This is achieved by developing a guidance system using sensors in form of cameras, radar and other technologies known from the automotive industry.

The guidance system will communicate with the existing navigation and control system that is in the production boats today.

Your responsibilities:

- Develop and train neural networks
- Writing code for object detection, route planning, collision avoidance
- Evaluate and integrate various sensors


To be successful in the role you must have:

It is expected that the candidate has experience with deep learning frameworks like: Pytorch, Tensorflow or similar. Advanced Python programming skills, competent in C/C++ and experience working with sensors like cameras are a requirement.

We believe that a suitable candidate has a Masters’ degree in (preferable Software or Electrical) Engineering and at least 2-3 years of experience from working with machine learning and data science.

To succeed in the role it is important that you have proven analytical skills, is comfortable in working independently, is accountable and hard working.

What's in it for you?

Once in every generation a new technology comes along that completely changes the rules of the game. Candela Electric Speed Boat is just that. A watershed moment in nautical history. The world’s first all electric hydrofoil speedboat.

Here at Candela we love 100% what we do and at the same time conscious about finding an acceptable balance with our lives outside Candela. And being good to each other is key - work is hard but should be fun. Candela is a great place to work. And an insanely cool product.
