Join Our Team as a Computer Vision Engineer at Hawk-Eye Innovations
Hi, I’m Kieran Smith, Computer Vision Engineering Discipline Lead here at Hawk-Eye Innovations, and I’m excited to invite you to consider joining our Baseball Live Tracking Solutions Squad as a Computer Vision Engineer
Working alongside experienced C++ engineers, product teams and sports technology specialists, you'll develop, maintain and evolve production-grade computer vision systems that power our baseball tracking solutions. You'll tackle complex engineering challenges, contribute to real-world tracking systems and help shape technology used across elite sport.

This will give you a deep understanding of how our Baseball tracking platform operates end to end while allowing you to contribute to its future development.
Working within a small, collaborative team, you'll quickly take ownership of features, contribute to technical design decisions and help deliver products that power world-class baseball tracking technology.
