Senior AI - Computer Vision Engineer

Build the spatial AI behind the future of construction

At XYZ Reality, we’ve created the world’s first engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution for construction. Our technology is already being used on major construction projects around the world to help teams build more accurately, efficiently and with fewer mistakes.

Now, we’re taking that technology even further.

We’re developing the next generation of wearable AI systems, combining computer vision, localisation, BIM understanding, semantic reasoning and augmented reality to create a Construction Intelligence platform capable of understanding what has been built, where it has been built and whether it has been installed correctly.

As a Series B business entering our next phase of growth, we’re investing further in our R&D capability and building out a technology hub in Calgary, Canada.

We’re looking for a Senior AI / Computer Vision Engineer with deep expertise in 3D computer vision and spatial AI to join the team and help develop the next generation of perception technology behind our products.

The Role

This is an opportunity to solve computer vision problems that exist at the intersection of the digital and physical world.

You’ll develop the perception and scene-understanding systems that enable our wearable technology to recognise construction objects, understand complex 3D environments, interpret BIM models, assess installation progress and identify quality issues using real-world sensor data.

For this role, 3D / spatial computer vision expertise is fundamental. We’re looking for someone who understands how AI and computer vision can reason about physical space – not simply someone with broader AI or machine learning experience.

You’ll work across research, algorithm development, optimisation, deployment and productisation, taking sophisticated computer vision techniques and turning them into robust technology capable of performing on active construction sites.

You’ll bring senior technical expertise to the team as we build our capability and presence in Calgary. You’ll also collaborate closely with our Navigation, Embedded Software, Hardware and Product teams across the wider business.

This is a role where you can combine deep technical work with real-world impact – seeing the algorithms and systems you develop ultimately deployed through wearable technology on some of the world’s most complex construction projects.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Develop advanced computer vision algorithms for construction scene understanding and spatial intelligence.

• Design and develop semantic segmentation, object detection and instance segmentation models.

• Build algorithms capable of understanding 3D environments, spatial relationships and physical geometry.

• Develop automated BIM correspondence and object-matching capabilities.

• Create perception systems capable of recognising installation state, construction progress and potential quality issues.

• Develop algorithms using RGB, stereo, depth cameras and other wearable sensor data.

• Combine AI, 3D vision, SLAM and BIM to develop geometric and spatial reasoning capabilities.

• Explore emerging scene representation techniques including Gaussian Splatting and NeRFs.

• Improve localisation-assisted perception and robustness across varying lighting, weather and real-world site conditions.

• Design, train and evaluate large-scale deep learning models.

• Develop data pipelines supporting supervised, self-supervised and semi-supervised learning.

• Evaluate emerging foundation models, multimodal AI and modern computer vision techniques where they can add meaningful value.

• Optimise models for embedded deployment, improving inference speed, accuracy and robustness.

• Deploy and optimise models for NVIDIA…
