Founding Computer Vision Engineer

Job description

Location: UK and Kyiv

Mission

Every month, drones injure and kill thousands of Ukrainians. Munin builds point-defense systems to stop them. Our first product is a hand-launched micro-missile designed to intercept small drones at close range. It is small enough to carry three in a vest and cheap enough for mass deployment. Our goal is to change the battlefield in Ukraine through very high-volume production, then deliver proven systems to NATO.

Role summary

We are hiring a founding computer vision engineer. You will be responsible for pipelines that detect russian drones across battlefield conditions.

You will start in the English countryside, living with the team of 6 next to our workshop and test site. After a few months, you will relocate to Kyiv to work directly with the Ukrainian military and scale production using front-line feedback. You will not operate near front-line areas, and you will work from Ukraine only while the security situation remains stable.

What you will do

• Own the real-time vision system for detecting small drones, working with other CV engineers
• Data collection and pipeline iteration using self-collected and battlefield data
• Work with soldiers to define requirements
• Deliver perception under tight compute, power, and latency limits
• Integrate perception into guidance and control systems

Requirements

• Significant hands-on experience building deployed computer vision pipelines
• You’ve shipped systems under time pressure
• High personal drive and tolerance for long, intense work periods
• Comfortable owning ambiguous problems end-to-end

Nice to have

• Startup experience
• Experience with, electronics, firmware, control or mechanical design
• Serious personal engineering projects outside work or university
• Military background

Credibility

In four months, we went from concept to a robust missile prototype that is smaller and cheaper than anything comparable, can be fired with one hand, and reliably intercepts FPV drones.

Recent work includes

• Working with the Ukrainian armed forces to go from pre-idea to warhead design, production, and live-fire testing in 24 hours
• Car-mounted missile testing at 200 km/h
• Building an air cannon in two days, then destructively testing 50 missiles to diagnose a hardware issue
• Six launches in a single day, with design iterations between each launch

Apply

Our team is from the Special Forces, Stanford, 1X, Imperial College, FLIR, student engineering teams and non-traditional paths. What we share is the ability to build real systems fast, take ownership and work toward a safer Europe.
