ABOUT DURANTA & WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Duranta was founded with the mission of helping contractors, starting with
landscapers, create a more beautiful world. Every year, over 1.5 million acres

building the platform that contractors will use to design beautiful,
ecological spaces, and run efficient businesses.

We are seeking a Computer Vision and Machine Learning Engineer to join our
team. You will be responsible for leading the development of our computer
vision pipelines for extracting comprehensive intelligence from satellite
imagery in collaboration with our team. We highly value expertise in building
robust, high-performance, and versatile computer vision applications.

Additionally, our application will have a CAD (Computer-Aided Design)
component, so any experience in this area will be helpful. 3D game-development

remote work, provided that you are able to spend a week, once a quarter,
onsite in Seattle.
