Dextro - Senior Distributed Systems Engineer (NYC full-time)

=======================================/

// What we do

Dextro is a venture-backed AI-as-a-service company building an API that makes it easy for developers to search, filter, and gather actionable statistics over photo and video datasets — without knowing any computer vision or machine learning. Our technology powers the next generation of vision-enabled apps, robots, smart devices, and data analytics tools.

// Who we are

We are a small, highly technical team of vision engineers and researchers from the UPenn GRASP Lab, IIT Delhi, Microsoft, and iRobot. Python, CUDA, C++, and Ruby are our core languages. We have 10^~14 FLOPS of compute on-site regularly being maxed out by experiments and performance testing.

// Who you are

This is primarily a distributed systems and web services developer role but you will have computer vision responsibilities. Though we expect significant backend dev experience, you will learn the vision that you need on the job.

The video analysis demo accepts most YouTube and Vimeo URLs! (Occasionally certain YouTube links trip up the fetching mechanism, however.)

Our full API accepts the major video formats.

Yes! General tagging of videos with all possible tags is great for media discovery, but we've built our system with data analysis in mind. We want to be useful for those who want to analyze photo and video datasets when they already know what their query is.

We've found that most of the value is in the latter. For example, our system helps answer:

  1) on a publisher video server, which videos were about automotive?
     Can we package those ads off to car brands?
  2) how many people took photos of my brand's product on instagram
     after our marketing campaign?
  3) what were pedestrian traffic patterns like outside 
     our store based on the CCTV system?
