Computer Vision Hardware Architect Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Poland

Our client is a global leader in advanced energy storage solutions, specializing in the design and manufacturing of automotive batteries. Headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the company serves major automakers and aftermarket retailers, producing over 150 million batteries annually and powering 1 in 3 vehicles worldwide. With operations in more than 50 countries, the company focuses on innovative and sustainable battery technologies for conventional, hybrid, and electric vehicles, supporting the evolving mobility ecosystem.

The project focuses on building a strategic, scalable computer vision platform for manufacturing environments. The initial implementation will establish the core architecture and reusable capabilities needed to support a growing range of use cases and enable future deployment across a global network of production plants. The platform will help improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness by increasing visibility into production processes, identifying operational losses and inefficiencies, and generating actionable insights across equipment availability, performance, and product quality.
