Tel Aviv
Full-time

Description
About us
Visual Layer, now part of Camtek, is building its AI Software center in Tel Aviv. Visual Layer's core engine understands visual data at scale: it finds duplicates, outliers, mislabels, and anomalies across millions of images without manual tagging. Camtek builds inspection and metrology systems for the semiconductor industry. Together, we are bringing state-of-the-art AI software products into high-volume industrial inspection.
The research team is small and senior: PhDs and published researchers working next to fast, production-minded engineers. We build, and we ship.
The role
We are looking for a Senior Algorithm Developer to research, develop, and implement advanced Computer Vision and Deep Learning algorithms for large-scale visual data analysis and industrial inspection.
You will work closely with a senior research team, taking algorithms from initial research and experimentation through to production.
Why Join Us?
Work on cutting-edge AI and Computer Vision technologies, alongside an experienced research team,
combining a startup environment with the stability of a global semiconductor company.
