About the job

About Us

At Gather AI, we're not just developing software; we're transforming the landscape of warehouse intelligence. Our innovative vision-driven platform leverages autonomous drones and existing infrastructure to capture real-time data, digitizing traditionally manual workflows. This revolutionary approach enhances operational efficiency, safety, and accuracy, redefining what it means to deliver 'on-time, in full.'

If you're eager to be part of groundbreaking technology that significantly impacts a crucial industry, Gather AI is your destination. Join us in leading the charge within the dynamic robotics sector, as we reshape the global supply chain, one intelligent warehouse at a time.

About the Team

This role is positioned at the intersection of our Autonomy, Machine Learning, Hardware, and Product teams. You will work collaboratively with engineers specializing in drone technology, MHE Vision, and embedded systems. You'll also partner with the Product team to define scanning accuracy requirements and collaborate with Hardware and Operations to optimize camera mounting, lighting, and deployment in real-world warehouse settings.

About the Role

We are in search of a Staff Perception Engineer to take comprehensive technical ownership of one of Gather AI's two primary production platforms: our drone-based inventory scanning system or our MHE Vision product, which are currently implemented in customer warehouses. Your role will involve applying systems-level rigor to enhance a platform that is already functional, with goals of accelerating deployment, streamlining operation, and improving reliability at scale.

This is a high-ownership, high-impact position, essential to ensuring the quality of every scan performed by our system. You will guide the technical direction and deliver measurable impacts on production systems serving real clients.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct an audit of the camera and imaging subsystems across MHEV and Modal: assess current performance metrics (barcode decode rates, read distances, motion blur effects), and identify primary bottlenecks.
  • Research, evaluate, and select camera and sensor hardware, specifying resolution, sensor size, lens options, and exposure controls suitable for industrial warehouse environments.
  • Implement and fine-tune auto-exposure, gain control, and lighting strategies to adapt to variable warehouse lighting conditions, including mitigating motion blur for dynamic platforms.
  • Develop image quality metrics and monitoring systems to sustain performance as deployments expand.
  • Collaborate with the ML team to ensure that perception model inputs align with training and inference quality standards.

About Gather AI

Gather AI is at the forefront of innovation in warehouse intelligence through its advanced technology solutions that utilize autonomous drones to enhance operational efficiency and accuracy within supply chains.
