Director @ Scouut | Connecting Start Ups With The Best Engineering and Design Talent in Australia |

Do you hate standing in a queue while no one's at the checkout?...And going to the office?

Imagine solving issues like that and more with cutting edge Computer Vision systems in a 100% remote role

With our client, you can And they'd love for you to join them in deploying computer vision systems on the edge, powered by GPUs sitting inside retail stores and banking branches.

Your work will power solutions for loss prevention, fraud detection, workforce optimisation and more in real time, across thousands of physical locations globally.

Why this role will change your career

This isn't another web app or pretty SaaS platform. It's a chance to work on hard, messy, real-world problems, connecting vision models, data streams, and edge devices into systems that thousands of people interact with daily.

  • You'll engineer fraud detection systems for some of the largest banks in Australia.
  • You'll optimise customer experience for retailers that move millions through their stores each week.
  • You'll work in a flat, diverse team of deep thinkers and problem solvers, where original problems matter more than boilerplate code.
  • You'll get to build in Python and beyond, with systems that demand scale, resilience, and elegant integration.

If you've ever wanted to see your work go live on the front lines, this is it.

What you'll do

You'll be the person who connects the dots, turning models, devices, and infrastructure into live systems that work in the wild.

  • Design and implement software that pushes computer vision into the real world, at the edge.
  • Work across Python, SQL, and other tools to integrate, optimise, and scale deployments.
  • Build systems that balance security, speed, and reliability across thousands of devices.
  • Collaborate with fellow engineers and researchers on original, high-impact technical problems.
  • Ship code that directly shapes how millions of people shop, bank, and move through the world.
  • You're fluent in Python (or 2+ other languages), and experienced in larger, complex software systems
  • You know your way around SQL, and ideally XML.
  • You're curious, pragmatic, and communicate clearly (in writing and in person).
  • You thrive in flat, collaborative teams where independence and ownership are assumed.
  • You're Sydney-based (preferred), or open to flying in once a month to catch up with the team.

About the Company

Our client is a small, tight knit technology company solving some of the hardest problems in retail and banking with computer vision and edge deployment.

They've already partnered with Australia's largest bank, and with leading retailers who rely on their systems for fraud prevention and workforce optimisation.

As some exciting plans (currently under wraps) get ever closer, they're now growing their all-star engineering team to tackle the next wave of challenges.

Ready to take on complex systems that millions will rely on every day?

If you're a builder at heart, someone who loves making complex things work in the real world, this is where you'll thrive.
