• Experience with 3D reconstruction, computer graphics or human-computer interaction is an advantage.

• Academic research experience or a publication record is also an advantage.

Key Competencies

• Sound understanding of interaction design and software architecture, with the ability to judge the quality and correctness of software artifacts, whether created by people or AI.
