• the speed of adaptation in a fast-moving environment

What you will do

Development and improvement of Core CV/Biometric systems

  • Anti-fraud and spoofing: Develop, train and implement advanced models for liveness detection, anti-spoofing and deepfake detection to protect the system from fakes (photos, videos, masks).
  • Face Recognition and verification: To design and optimize face verification and identification algorithms for KYC (Know Your Customer) and Identity Verification systems.
  • Document Recognition: Develop and integrate solutions for OCR (text recognition) and document authentication.

Architecture design and Production-grade pipelines

  • End-to-End development: Design the architecture of Enterprise Biometric Systems from data collection to deployment.
  • Building CV pipelines: Create fault-tolerant, scalable, and fast ML/CV pipelines that are ready for high loads (rather than just running as demo scripts).
  • Working with data: Collect, mark up, and prepare large-scale datasets, as well as generate synthetic data for model training.

Optimization and MLOps (Speed and Efficiency)

  • Inference & GPU optimization: Reduce latency and optimize the resource consumption of models using TensorRT, CUDA, ONNX Runtime.
  • Edge & Mobile: Adapt and optimize heavy models to work on mobile and edge devices.
  • Deployment and infrastructure: Containerize solutions (Docker/Kubernetes), deploy them in the clouds (AWS/GCP), and build MLOps processes (CI/CD for ML).

Certification and Compliance with Standards (Compliance)

  • Preparation for iBeta Level 2: Prepare the company's biometric solutions and architecture for successful completion of the international iBeta Level 2 certification.
  • Test Participation: Prepare models and participate in independent global biometrics assessments such as NIST FRVT evaluations.
  • Maintain biometric systems in accordance with international compliance and security standards.

AI-First approach and Research

  • Acceleration through AI: Build your own development workflow, actively using AI assistants (Cursor, Windsor, Copilot, ChatGPT/Claude), prompt engineering and LLM API for fast code writing, debugging and reserching.
  • Transferring SOTA to Production: Monitor the latest scientific articles (SOTA papers) on Computer Vision / Biometrics and promptly implement the best approaches into a real product, understanding the difference between a beautiful academic demo and a stable enterprise solution.

What we offer

We offer:

- Work for a biometric IT company

- Comfortable office

- Open communication in the team

- Offline work from the office on schedule 5/2 from 10:00 to 19:00, at the end of the probation period (3 months) there is an opportunity to discuss a hybrid work format
