Value Stream - Tracking & Auto Officiating

Location: Hybrid working – minimum 2 days per week in the office
Office location : Hungary, Budapest
Contract: Permanent, Full-Time

Hi, I’m James Sharam, Head of Computer Vision at Hawk-Eye Innovations. I’m looking for a Senior Computer Vision Engineer to join our growing team. This is a key role focused on real-time skeletal, ball and game object tracking for multiple sports. A strong background in mathematics and modelling is encouraged. If that kind of technical challenge excites you, I’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Computer Vision Engineer – Algorithms to join our Computer Vision team at Hawk-Eye Innovations.

This role is suited to an experienced engineer who enjoys owning complex algorithmic systems and seeing them operate in real-world, production environments.

The role is strongly algorithm-focused, with an emphasis on accuracy, performance, robustness, and system-level thinking, spanning modern C++, multi-camera geometry, cross-platform deployments, and cloud-enabled pipelines.

What You’ll Work On

• Designing, developing, and improving ball and player tracking algorithms using multi-camera systems

• Owning and evolving multi-view geometry solutions for accurate, court-wide tracking

• Developing robust approaches to occlusion handling, recovery, and failure modes in fast-paced sports scenarios

• Enhancing and maintaining mature, long-running computer vision systems used in live production

• Optimising algorithms for performance and reliability, including CPU and GPU considerations

• Contributing to cross-platform systems, ensuring algorithms run consistently across environments

• Supporting the integration of algorithms into cloud-enabled and distributed systems

• Working in an agile environment to deliver robust, production-ready solutions at scale

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the development and improvement of computer vision algorithms from concept through to production

• Design, implement, test, and validate complex algorithmic features

• Take ownership of algorithmic components and drive their long-term maintainability and technical quality

• Collaborate closely with engineers across computer vision, tracking, tooling, and platform teams

• Contribute to technical discussions around architecture, performance, scalability, and deployment

• Identify weaknesses in existing approaches and propose pragmatic improvements

• Share progress, decisions, and learnings with the wider team

• Support and mentor other engineers through code reviews and technical guidance
