About Glimpse

The last decade has been incredibly exciting for electric mobility. However, the electrification of the transportation industry has scaled while relying on an insufficient set of quality control tools. This has led to uncomfortably high rates of battery pack failure and multi-billion-dollar safety recalls. In our view, every headline of electric vehicles and e-bikes catching fire is a major impediment towards an all-electric future. 

Founded in 2023 by ex-Tesla and Toyota employees, Glimpse is enabling battery quality at scale to support a safe and rapid transition to an electrified world. Visit glimp.se to learn more.

Role

As an image processing engineer, you will work closely with Glimpse's Chief Technology Officer. You will design and build image analysis algorithms that empower Glimpse's customers to quickly diagnose and improve the quality of their batteries. These automated algorithms will unlock key insights into our customers’ TB-scale imaging datasets and enable them to regain control over their manufacturing operations. These algorithms will serve as the core IP of our product.
