  • Experience with real-time 3D or game graphics applied to interactive output
  • Hands-on experience with computer vision pipelines using media frameworks or libraries
  • Proven ability to lead features or subsystems from ambiguous requirements through to production
  • Experience improving system architecture, observability, and testing practices
