About Monarch: 

At Monarch, we’re leading the digital transformation of farming. Monarch Tractor augments both muscle and mind with fully loaded hardware, software, and service machinery that will spur future generations of farming technologies. 

With our farmer-first mentality, we are building a smart tractor that will enhance (not replace) the existing farm ecosystem, alleviate labor availability, and cost issues, and provide an avenue for competitive organic and beyond farming by providing mechanical solutions to replace harmful chemical solutions. Despite all the cutting-edge technology we will incorporate, our tractor will still plow, still, and haul better than any other tractor in its class. We have all the necessary ingredients to develop, build and scale the Monarch Tractor and digitally transform farming around the world. 

Description: 

We are looking for engineers to work on applied research problems related to perception in autonomous driving of electric tractors. The team works on classical and deep learning-based techniques for computer vision. Several problems like SFM, SLAM, 3D Image processing, multiple view geometry etc. Are being solved to deploy on resource constrained hardware. 

Technical Skills: 

• Background in Linear Algebra, Probability and Statistics, graphical algorithms and optimization problems is necessary. 
• Solid theoretical background in 3D computer vision, computational geometry, SLAM and robot perception is desired. Deep learning background is optional. 
• Knowledge of some numerical algorithms or libraries among: Bayesian filters, SLAM, Eigen, Boost, g2o, PCL, Open3D, ICP. 
• Experience in two view and multi-view geometry. 
• Necessary Skills: Python, C++, Boost, Computer Vision, Robotics, OpenCV. 
• Academic experience for freshers in Vision for Robotics is preferred.  
• Experienced candidates in Robotics with no prior Deep Learning experience willing to apply their knowledge to vision problems are also encouraged to apply. 
• Software development experience on low-power embedded platforms is a plus. 

Responsibilities: 

• Understanding engineering principles and a clear understanding of data structures and algorithms. 
• Ability to understand, optimize and debug imaging algorithms. 
• Ability to drive a project from conception to completion, research papers to code with disciplined approach to software development on Linux platform. 
• Demonstrate outstanding ability to perform innovative and significant research in the form of technical papers, thesis, or patents. 
• Optimize runtime performance of designed models. 
• Deploy models to production and monitor performance and debug inaccuracies and exceptions. 
• Communicate and collaborate with team members in India and abroad for the fulfillment of your duties and organizational objectives. 
• Thrive in a fast-paced environment and can own the project end to end with minimum hand holding. 
• Learn & adapt to new technologies & skillsets. 
• Work on projects independently with timely delivery & defect free approach. 
• Thesis focusing on the above skill set may be given more preference. 

What you will get: 

At Monarch Tractor, you’ll play a key role on a capable, dedicated, high-performing team of rock stars. Our compensation package includes a competitive salary, excellent health benefits commensurate with the role you’ll play in our success.
