Project leader Vision + Robotics

We are looking for:

A passionate project leader who understands the needs of the customer, who helps to formulate the project plan and who leads the projects within the Vision + Robotics (V+R) team.

As a project leader you find a good balance between the creativity of innovative V+R research and the translation to practical solutions. You work with a multidisciplinary team of highly educated professionals and take part in that team as V+R expert.

Do you have the skills?

As project leader you are the contact person for the external client, you make sure that commitments are met, and you are responsible for the planning and budget of the project. We ask of you that you are not just a superb project leader, but also that you have excellent advisory skills in the fields of computer vision, machine learning, and/or robotics. Besides that, you have experience in network building.

That means that communicating and listening are important character traits. Moreover, you are capable for expressing yourself in oral and written communications.

You will be involved in the whole duration of the project, from the first contact with the customer to the delivery of the end result. You will get the opportunity to learn many new things and to give a personal contribution to innovative projects.
