Interested in applying your great computer science knowledge to
applied computer vision and machine learning applications? Want to work
in a startup, get paid properly, and have meaningful equity?
Xihelm is a venture-backed, applied deep computer vision startup
working in smart cities and security, and is an Entrepreneur First
graduate. We have real enterprise and government customers, and are
working on some cool recognition tasks that could save billions, and
hopefully even save lives. Good luck trying to find much out about us on
Google though :)
There’s a good chance to help define our culture as employee #3. So
far, we enjoy our “Wednesday night is pub night”, and the CEO’s
impressive trigger finger at Laser Quest. What would you like to do?
We’re looking for impressive people. Think you can implement a
memory-optimised A* search in the time most people eat their biscuit?
Come talk to us.
