Job description:


*         Research & development in real-time computer vision,
human-computer interaction, and/or networking/systems

*         Implementation and testing of algorithms in these areas


Required:


*         BA/BS in Computer Science or related field

*         Strong background in computer vision or computer networking

programming, VoIP, multimedia streaming, OpenGL ES 2.0, image-based
rendering, and/or ARM assembly


The founding team you'd work with:


*         Dr. Steffen Gauglitz (co-founder and CTO) received his Ph.D. in
Computer Science from UCSB. His dissertation work on interactive remote
collaboration, which has received several awards at UCSB and at top-tier
international conferences, forms the foundation upon which Caugnate was
conceived. Steffen has worked at WorldViz, a leader in turnkey Virtual
Reality solutions, at Qualcomm, and at Google.

*         Dr. Matthew Turk (co-founder and CEO) holds a Ph.D. from MIT and
has extensive experience in both industry and academia, including an
aerospace company, a Silicon Valley startup, Microsoft Research, and UCSB,
where he co-directs the Four Eyes Lab (currently on leave from the
university to focus on Caugnate). His works have received more than 24,000
citations.
