Back End Developer

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.
