Since we use OF in the lab pretty regularly and our SDK has an OF Addon, I feel like this is an appropriate place as any to post a few job openings.
Intel's Perceptual Computing Lab is hiring! Thought I'd post two jobs that don't have "official" Intel descriptions yet, and one that does. The jobs are all located at Intel's HQ in Santa Clara, CA. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email. ********
Creative Coder/Hardware HackerIntel's Perceptual Computing Department is hiring a Creative Coder/Hardware Hacker. We work with experimental depth cameras, voice input, biometric monitoring, face detection, hand tracking, eye tracking and other new ways of interacting with computing devices. We need someone to create mashups of various cutting-edge technologies into working prototypes that show off unique ways of interacting with technology.
Often it starts with someone saying, wouldn't it be cool if… and when the right pieces of the puzzle come along, we attempt to build it. You will need to be comfortable ripping apart the latest ultrabooks, tablets, sensors, cameras, etc., and carefully reassembling things into working prototypes. The goal is to prototype a bunch of ideas relatively cheaply and quickly to determine what is worth investing more time on. You will be expected to fail; if your prototypes aren't pushing the limits of what is possible, don't bother building it.
Ideally, we would like someone who has enough general skills to create entire prototype solutions from concept to mechanical design, electronic assembly, and write software to test said prototype and quickly prove if an idea is worth putting more time and people into. These prototypes could eventually turn into real products 1-3 years out. When a project is picked up, a team will be assigned to develop it further to product level.
You will work with researchers, creative coders, industrial designers, UX designers, and others in a team to produce prototypes of real products that will reshape the way people will interact with technology in the future.
Bonus skills:
Optical engineering
Low-level hardware programming
Please email ******** with a link to your portfolio of work and any experience you think is relevant and maybe a resume.
UI DesignerIntel's Perceptual Computing Department is hiring a UI designer. We work with experimental depth cameras, voice input, biometric monitoring, face detection, hand tracking, eye tracking, and other new ways of interacting with computing devices. The challenge is figuring out what feels intuitive and how to combine various new technologies into a seamless beautiful experience… this is where you fit in.
So if you've ever found yourself watching a sci-fi movie with some futuristic interface and thought, "pssh, I could have done better," now is your chance to prove it. It's not enough that things look beautiful; they must feel intuitive, natural, and any number of other buzzwords that tech bloggers like to throw around.
You will work with researchers, creative coders, industrial designers, and others in a team to produce real products that will reshape the way people will interact with technology in the future.
Skills:
Ability to mock up interfaces quickly
Come up with novel ways of combining inputs
2D and 3D technical but artistic illustrations, animations, and exportable assets
Strong Illustrator, Photoshop, and motion graphics software background
Worked with developers in the past to create finished products
Please email ******** with a link to a reel or portfolio of your work and any experience you think is relevant and maybe a resume.
Senior Interactive Software Engineer - 704329The Perceptual Computing Group of Intel Corporation is looking to fill the position of Senior Interactive Software Engineer.
