About Hyper Hyper is an innovative, London-based startup on a mission to redefine how people experience the real world. We've built the most accurate and scalable indoor location technology, and have rolled out in IKEA stores across Europe. We've entered a space with huge commercial demand, but previously defined by inaccurate and disappointing solutions, such as bluetooth beacons. Using our new approach, powered by a mix between Augmented Reality sensors and WiFi, we've been able to achieve 5x more accurate location than any other solution, with unlimited scale and an amazing user experience. This is "Indoor location that actually works". Check out a demo of our user experience: The Role Our mapping methodology encompasses the transformation of CAD floor plans into dynamic digital renditions, enriched with interactive elements facilitating point-of-interest identification and seamless navigation. We're on the lookout for a skilled ML Solutions Engineer to spearhead our mapping R&D division as a foundational team member. Your role will involve pioneering novel solutions aimed at revolutionising our automated mapping capabilities for scalability. Through your innovations, we aim to streamline our store mapping process to mere minutes, enabling us to efficiently scale across tens of thousands of locations. Responsibilities Strong problem-solving and algorithmic skills and familiarity with machine learning and AI techniques applicable to mapping digitisation and automation, with the ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand requirements and translate them into machine learning solutions for mapping digitisation and automation.
