About the Role
iProov has continued to scale rapidly this year and is currently looking for a Senior Research Engineer to join the growing Core AI team based in London. As a Senior Research Engineer in Core AI, you will design, build and ship the computer vision and ML models that power iProov’s facial biometric and liveness systems. You’ll own projects end-to-end, from idea and experiment to production integration and incident response, in a highly adversarial security context.
How you can make an impact
Lead research projects in the areas of computer vision, machine learning and biometrics.
Develop and train deep learning models for face verification, liveness and attack detection.
Take the lead on shaping data and evaluation strategies, including synthetic and adversarial data.
Investigate failure modes and improve generalisation, robustness and fairness.
Work with platform and optimisation engineers to turn models into production-quality services.
Communicate results and recommendations clearly with stakeholders across the business.
Contribute to the broader research strategy of the company.
