My job, Our future

Kubota Technology Innovation Europe department

The KTI-EU organization is a newly established department focusing on digital solutions and systems development from both a fundamental and applied research perspective. It bridges the gap between the market research, collaborations and technology mapping (driven by our Innovation Center Europe) and the commercial development done by our R&D centers, like Kubota Research and Development Europe and Kverneland Group. The KTI department centers itself on the European market but in strong collaboration with the global organization and other regional offices e.g., KTI-SV (Silicon Valley, USA) to align and coordinate global initiatives.

In this context and in order to strengthen our team, we are looking to recruit a Computer Vision (CV) Engineer . This activity is related to the development of CV systems for precision agriculture solutions using various type of optical sensors such as RGB, multi / hyper-spectral, thermal, stereo cameras and / or LiDAR, radar, other imaging sensors. The scope of the application is broad, including agricultural crop monitoring, machine monitoring, autonomous driving, monitoring of quality of agricultural work while working with tractors and agricultural implements. This is a critical role for the success of our technology advancements pushing the boundaries of productivity and sustainability.

Responsibilities :

CV systems development :

• Define requirements and specifications for the CV systems, communicating with global stakeholders of Kubota and partners.
• Define and design experiments from data collection to evaluation and testing.
• Develop CV algorithms by combining technologies such as image processing, classical CV and modern deep learning based CV etc.
• Develop software required for the visualization, analysis and testing of the developed CV algorithms.
• Planning and execution support for the integration of the CV algorithms onto the agricultural machineries.
• Technical information collection, reporting, and evaluation of the AI / CV integrated agricultural products, related sensors.
• Manage relationships with contract manufacturers, suppliers, and external partners.
• Work within joint research projects with external local and international partners.
