About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Explore data and workflows to identify opportunities where CV/ML-based solutions can have the most impact
  • Apply classical computer vision techniques — feature matching, geometric transformations, image registration — to build internal and customer-facing features
  • Prepare training data, and train, fine-tune, and validate vision-based models
  • Develop cross-technology solutions combining VLMs, vision-based models, and classical CV
  • Ship CV pipelines that can be continuously monitored and validated, with evaluation harnesses and quality metrics built in from day one
  • Report to the Head of Strategic Initiatives
  • Shape CivilGrid's computer vision capabilities as one of the first engineers in this area

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 6+ years of experience building computer vision systems in Python, with tools such as OpenCV, NumPy, and PyTorch (or equivalents)
  • Solid grounding in classical computer vision: feature extraction and matching, geometric transformations, image registration, and robust estimation (e.g., RANSAC)
  • Solid grounding in ML and ML-based computer vision: CNNs, transformers, embedding spaces
  • Hands-on experience preparing datasets and training, fine-tuning, and evaluating vision-based models
  • Autonomous, moves fast, and takes initiative without being asked
  • Strong verbal and written communication, able to articulate ideas clearly and collaborate effectively
  • A degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (B.S. or M.S.)
  • Experience working with messy real-world imagery — scanned documents, OCR outputs, low-quality rasters — is a plus
  • Familiarity with geospatial tooling (GDAL/rasterio, coordinate reference systems) is a bonus
  • Experience integrating VLM/LLM APIs into production workflows is a bonus
  • Experience with MLOps is a bonus
  • Must be willing to work from the Boston office at least 3 days per week if hired

Benefits

Comp & perks
  • Meaningful early-stage equity
  • Company-funded medical, dental, and vision insurance — including medical plans at no cost to the employee
  • FSA (health and dependent care)
  • Unlimited PTO and a culture that expects you to actually use it
  • 401(k) plan
  • Flexible, remote-friendly work environment
  • A high-trust team, real ownership, and the chance to do the most meaningful work of your career
