Internship opportunities at Prophesee

PROPHESEE

Founded by the world’s leading pioneers in the field of neuromorphic vision, Prophesee develops computer vision sensors and systems for application in all fields of artificial vision. The sensor technology is inspired by biological eyes, acquiring visual information in an extremely performing yet highly efficient way. Prophesee’s disruptive vision sensor technology entirely overthrows the established paradigms of frame-based vision acquisition currently used everywhere in computer vision.

This is a great opportunity to join a dynamic company and an exciting team and to lead a paradigm shift in computer vision across many industries.

EVENT-BASED TECHNOLOGY

Prophesee designs and produces a new type of cameras that are bio-inspired and thus free themselves from the concept of images. They do not gather information with a fixed framerate but instead each pixel is captured asynchronously when needed. These bio-inspired cameras, also called event-based cameras or neuromorphic cameras, therefore have an extremely sparse output and enable, with appropriate algorithms, a real time treatment of the information at an equivalent frequency of a kHz or more. But since the data coming from the sensor are quite different from the images traditionally used in standard vision, Prophesee is also advancing the algorithmic and machine learning side of this new kind of machine vision. This enables our clients to build new applications in a wide range of domains, including industrial automation, connected devices, autonomous vehicles, augmented and virtual reality, and more.

INTERNSHIP POSITION DESCRIPTION

We are looking for passionate interns who demonstrate initiative, take ownership for project work, and exhibit a strong spirit of innovation. The ideal candidate is a curious and creative individual keen on problem-solving and with prior experience in C++ / Python programming and exposure to the Computer Vision / Image Processing / Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning domains.

She/He will work in a mixed team of scientists and engineers to design, develop & optimize solutions to research problems. Her/His main contribution will be in creating innovative bio-inspired computer vision algorithms for specific tasks across many applications such as computational imaging, 3d sensing, robotics, localization, factory automation, smart devices, aerospace & defense, automotive, etc.

The main required skills common to MOST internship positions are the following (but not exclusively):

  • Excellent programming skills in C++ and/or in Python
  • Engineering background in Computer Science, Mathematics or related field
  • Prior experience in projects involving at least one of the following domains:
  • Algorithmic design, e.g. 3d vision, machine learning, numerical optimization, etc
  • Software development, e.g. implementation, architecture, optimization, testing, porting on embedded platforms, etc
  • Development operations, e.g. source code versioning, continuous integration & deployment, cloud computing, system administration, etc

Development

Prophesee designs event-based cameras and the software suite to operate them. Our software development teams are responsible for the research & development of our cutting-edge software suite, and actively contribute to software design, API architecture, implementation, optimization, testing, maintenance, packaging and deployment.

This internship will be the opportunity to join one of our talented development teams, working closely with product, support and sales organizations, and to learn modern development methodologies (Scrum / Kanban) and technologies besides experienced engineers.

More precisely, your contributions will be to:

  • take ownership of part of our code-base related to a particular interface, tool or functionality
  • collect usage requirements and improvement requests from stakeholders
  • design and architecture the technical solution and refine it in collaboration with stakeholders
  • implement the agreed solution and ensure it is properly tested and documented
  • maintain the code to incrementally optimize it and fix potential issues
