At Varjo we create hardware and software experiences to fulfill our vision of immersive computing. The mixed reality experiences we are creating will empower each of us to be more creative and more productive.

We want to work with the best – we want you to join us. We are offering you an exciting position where you can see into the future and play your part in shaping it.

When we are done, computers will look nothing like what they do right now.

Job description

It all starts with a device capable of imaging its environment. What follows is processing the various sensor data into understanding of the environment, which is the point where you step in. But we are not done before the understanding is further transformed into a format that empowers applications, and shared across the world. You can learn more about our vision and what we are doing right now at https://varjo.com/blog/varjo-reality-cloud/

We at Varjo are looking for a Teleport Engineer to join the team and start doing your magic with computer vision and computer graphics. The wide variety of topics you will be working on range from RGB-D geometry reconstruction and multi-view image registration to meshing, texturing, and streaming.
You take pride in knowing that your GPGPU implementations do not waste a single cycle of the hardware while they churn through gigantic amounts of data and generate results without any latency.  You thrive being involved in the entire lifetime of the tech you create, from brainstorming to research to development to shipping.
There are no footsteps to follow because what we are doing has never been done before, and you like it.  You enjoy envisioning where the algorithms that you are coding will be used in the future, and you can design them in a way that they can be reused to solve the future problems that are lurking around the corner.  The engineers and designers you will be working with are world class in their own domain, we want you to aspire for the same.

This is a full-time position located in Helsinki, Finland. Even though our office is in Helsinki, you can do your work 100% remotely in Finland or any combination of time spent remote and at the office. What ever works best for you. 

If you're based somewhere else at the moment, we will also gladly help with relocating to Finland and make your move to the capital of the world's happiest and cleanest country as easy as possible.
