What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Computer Vision Engineer position at R-Stream LLC?
Senior Computer Vision Engineer
What We Do :
Humanity wastes or burns $50B of recyclable plastics each year. This adds to the 50 trillion particles of microplastics in our environment, generates toxic methane gas and PFAS runoff, and emits millions of tons of greenhouse gasses. Recycling isnt profitable today because individuals do a poor job of separating trash, recyclables, and compostables accurately. Its not their fault; the rules are complicated and its hard to tell what goes where.
