Front Door Defense; Atlanta, Northern (GA, KY); Hybrid; USD 160,000 - 230,000; Full time

Job summary

Data Foundry is building and scaling an egocentric perception stack to convert operational data into valuable training assets. You will lead data collection, model development, and end-to-end pipelines for production-grade datasets.

The role emphasizes ownership of the data product, hardware integration, and scalable perception systems across real-world, warehouse-like environments.

Qualifications

• Strong CV background with egocentric perception or similar stack.
• Production-grade vision systems experience.
• Experience with Python, C++, and ML tooling.
• Hands-on with large unstructured video/multimodal data.

Responsibilities

• Own the early egocentric video stack: data collection, models, pipelines.
• Build and scale the data product across quality tiers for delivery.
• Stand up capture operations, edge processing, and dataset packaging.

Job description

Senior Computer Vision Engineer (Egocentric), Data Foundry

Build and scale an egocentric perception stack from data collection to production deployment

Location: Atlanta, Georgia

About The Role

Computer Vision Engineer And Technologist

Stord operates the largest independent e-commerce fulfillment network in the US — 20+ fulfillment centers, 4,000+ warehouse associates, and nearly 100 million packages shipped annually. We are building a new business line that turns this operational infrastructure into some of the most valuable training data assets in physical AI. We are looking for an experienced computer vision engineer and technologist to build and scale this business from the ground up.

What You Will Own

You will own the early egocentric video stack -- data collection, vision models and pipelines, and rigs. You'll partner closely with a small team to operationalize. This is a builder-operator role. You will:

• Define and deliver the product. You will own the data product across quality tiers — from RGB egocentric video through depth-enhanced and full multimodal capture with hand pose and annotations. You will decide what gets built, in what order, based on what buyers will actually pay for. You will hold the line on quality.
• Run the capture and delivery program. You will stand up the warehouse capture operation: camera and rig hardware selection, enrollment, edge processing, and the processing pipelines that package datasets for delivery. You will coordinate across warehouse operations, engineering, and customers to ship datasets on spec and on schedule.
• Build the perception stack. Detection, tracking, and segmentation, plus depth/3D reconstruction and 6DoF, multi-view 3D hand/body pose estimation from egocentric and fixed-camera capture.
• Stand up VLM-assisted and automated labeling with human-in-the-loop QA to drive down cost per annotated hour, and integrate the annotation tooling.
• Own the hardware vision intersection. Camera calibration, epipolar/multi-view geometry, and frame-accurate time-sync across multi-camera and egocentric rigs; derive 3D pose by triangulation where no direct sensor exists.
• Train and ship models. Design, fine-tune, and optimize CV/multimodal models on large unstructured video datasets, and get them reproducible and production-ready, not stuck in a notebook.

What You Bring

• Experiencing standing up and scaling an egocentric perception stack. You have built and run a similar product end to end at a robotics or AI data company. You have driven the full lifecycle: hardware setup, embedded perception, data pipelines, ensuring quality, and delivering it to production teams who depend on it.
• 8+ years building and shipping production computer-vision/perception systems (or an MS/PhD in CV, ML, or robotics plus 6+ years hands-on), including systems that ran on messy real-world data, not just benchmarks.
• Deep expertise in computer vision and tooling — track record of leveraging existing tooling and designing, training, and debugging CNNs and vision transformers from scratch.
• Strong command of geometric computer vision: camera calibration, depth estimation, and 2D/3D pose estimation
• End-to-end ownership of a major perception problem: from data and model design through evaluation, optimization, and deployment, with measurable accuracy and reliability outcomes.
• Track record of setting technical direction for a team or large workstream and raising the bar for other engineers.
• Proven ability to take ambiguous, 0→1 problems with no established playbook and drive them to a working system with limited resources.
• Experience with large unstructured datasets (video/multimodal) and the eval discipline to instrument accuracy rather than eyeball it.
• Expert Python and strong software-engineering fundamentals; C++ where performance demands it.

Why This Role

This is a rare opportunity to build a high-growth business from the ground-up with infrastructure and resources to support. You will have:

• A structural moat that no startup can replicate
• Direct access to the fastest-growing buyer market in AI
• CTO/Co-Founder as your direct partner.
