Job Description: Software Developer — Web, Cloud & Edge Magic
About HelioVision
HelioVision designs and deploys tailor-made Machine Vision systems for major brands. Think of:
- Automated quality control for Estée Lauder catching the tiniest lipstick defects.
- Smart checkout cameras at Colruyt recognizing products in real-time.
- Vision-driven automation for Atlas Copco, Dell, ICI PARIS XL, and many more.
HelioVision blends hardware innovation (cameras, edge devices) with state-of-the-art software (AI, vision, web technologies) to turn advanced tech into robust, user-friendly solutions.
The Role
Are you excited to help build a fast-growing scale-up that delivers cutting-edge Machine Vision solutions to world-class clients? Do you love crafting modern web apps and tinkering with edge devices like Raspberry Pi and Arduino?
Then you might just be our next React & Raspberry Sorcerer.
Your Impact
You'll work on full-stack projects from start to finish, with a strong focus on React development, cloud/edge integration, and real-world deployment.
You will:
- Build modern web applications (React/TypeScript) — dashboards, operator UIs, and configuration portals that visualize live vision data and control edge devices.
- Design and develop APIs (Node.js, FastAPI, or equivalent) that communicate with Raspberry Pi's, Arduino boards, and industrial sensors.
- Integrate hardware + software + AI — image capture, inference, and logic — optimized for reliability and ultra-low latency.
- Deploy and manage apps at the edge or in the cloud (Docker, GCP/AWS/Supabase), including remote logging and updates.
- Occasionally go on-site for installation, calibration, and testing at client facilities — bringing your code to life in the factory of the future.
- Collaborate closely with our CTO and development team to push the boundaries of what's possible in Machine Vision.
Tech Stack
Main playground:
- Frontend: React, TypeScript, Vite/Next.js, real-time data (WebSockets).
- Backend: Node.js or Python (FastAPI/Express), REST/gRPC APIs.
- Cloud & Databases: GCP or AWS, PostgreSQL (or equivalent), Supabase (bonus).
- Edge & IoT: Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Dockerized deployments, serial protocols (I2C, SPI, UART).
- Vision & AI (nice-to-have): OpenCV, PyTorch, and computer vision inference on the edge.
What We're Looking For
You're a builder — someone who loves to see ideas come alive in code and hardware. You have:
- Solid experience with modern web technologies (React or equivalent).
- Understanding of cloud and databases (e.g., GCP/AWS, PostgreSQL).
- Curiosity for hardware and embedded systems (Raspberry Pi, Arduino).
- Bonus points for experience with Deep Learning, Supabase, or Computer Vision.
- A hands-on mindset, strong ownership, and the drive to turn complex problems into elegant solutions.
