Job Description

Overview

ClearEdge3D (www.ClearEdge3D.com), a subsidiary of Topcon America Corporation, is a software firm with deep experience in computer vision algorithms for automating the creation of 3D models from laser scanned point clouds. We're seeking talented C++/C# developers who are passionate about 3D and mathematical modeling and strongly motivated to apply their skills towards solving exciting, challenging real-world problems. This is an opportunity to get deeply involved in hands-on, cutting edge research and development work to turn massive 3D data sets from a variety of capture devices into 3D models of the physical world.

This is a ground-floor opportunity with an innovative and rapidly growing company. We've won several grants from the National Science Foundation to develop this technology, and our commercial applications are gaining tremendous traction in the Architectural/Engineering/Construction marketplace. You will work on game-changing software that could revolutionize the way the world's infrastructure is built. Our parent company is a global leader of precision measurement and geomatics equipment with a 200+ person development team, so opportunities for career advancement abound.

Responsibilities

The Software Developer will have a strong background in 3D geometry and/or mathematical modeling. It doesn't matter if it's coding up Monte Carlo simulations of a particle physics detector, writing computational fluid dynamics solvers, building tessellation algorithms for a solid modeling kernel or interpreting LiDAR data in real time - if you've got strong geometric reasoning skills you'll fit right in.

Qualifications

* S. or Ph.D in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Computer Science, or similar field
* Experince with Computer vision, photogrammetry, laser scanning, and/or point cloud
* Software ergonomics and GUI design - particularly as it relates to 3D modeling
* Strong background in 3D geometry
* Familiarity with Agile software development methodology
* Efficient object-oriented programming skills
* Strong knowledge of software design and implementation techniques in a fast-moving environment.
* At least 3 years of C++/Object Oriented programming experience
* Ability to communicate well verbally, write clearly
* Ability to quickly learn and assimilate external code and libraries
* Self-motivated and eager to make an impact
* Authorized to work in US or able to obtain such authorization quickly
