LMI Technologies, recognized as one of Canada's best workplaces, is a medium-sized technology company built on a culture of openness, respect and professional excellence. At LMI our staff work passionately towards the common goal of designing and delivering innovative 3D machine vision solutions to OEMs and System Integrators. Our customers rely on our cost-effective 3D sensor technologies that deliver the best results in even the most challenging 3D inline inspection applications.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a Vision Software Developer II to join our dynamic Applications and Technology team. In this role, you will report directly to the Senior Vision Software Manager, acting as a key technical contributor in a team of 14 high-performing peers.
You will sit at the intersection of R&D and real-world application. You will take the "unsolvable" problems our customers face and turn them into deployed, high-performance 3D measurement solutions.
You will elevate the team's capabilities by designing robust algorithms and proof-of-concept tools that demonstrate exactly what our technology can do. If you are a developer who loves math, physics, and seeing your code interact with the physical world, this is your home.
How You Will Make an Impact
Innovate & Solve: You will translate complex customer requirements into sophisticated C++ algorithms for pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, and 3D measurement. You turn abstract geometry problems into working code.
Elevate the Tech Stack: Working closely with the Senior Manager and your 14 peers, you will help standardize best practices, ensuring our application code is not just functional, but scalable, maintainable, and "best in class."
Bridge the Gap: You will act as a technical liaison, occasionally traveling to customer sites to deploy prototypes and gather insights that you will feed back to the VP of Technology’s group to influence future product roadmaps.
End-to-End Ownership: From designing the initial algorithm to building the HMI interface, you will own your projects, ensuring tight delivery timelines are met without compromising quality.
What You Will Do
Algorithm Design: Develop and optimize real-time 2D and 3D vision algorithms (filtering, point cloud processing, metrology) to solve specific inspection challenges.
Prototyping: Rapidly build proof-of-concept applications using LMI’s 3D smart sensors to demonstrate feasibility to major OEMs and System Integrators.
Collaboration: Participate in design reviews with your peer group, offering and receiving technical feedback to mitigate risks and improve code quality.
Documentation & Reporting: produce clear, analytical technical reports and documentation that summarize results and propose concrete solutions to stakeholders.
Continuous Improvement: Proactively identify areas to improve our internal tools and processes, supporting the Senior Manager in driving operational excellence.
What You Bring to the Table
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering. (A Master’s degree in a related field is a strong plus).
Experience: 3+ years of professional experience in software design, specifically within Machine Vision, Image Processing, or 3D Metrology.
Technical Stack:
Strong C/C++ programming skills are a must.
Solid mathematical foundation (Linear Algebra, 3D Geometry, Statistics).
Familiarity with vision libraries is highly valued (e.g., OpenCV, PCL, Halcon, Cognex VisionPro).
Problem Solving: You have a proven track record of breaking down vague requirements into technical specifications and delivering working solutions.
Communication: You can explain complex algorithmic concepts to both technical peers and non-technical customers.
Agility: You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple project milestones, and traveling occasionally (domestically and internationally) to get the job done.
What We Offer
Salary Range: CAD $88,000 - CAD $130,000.
Health Benefits: Full health care coverage (with 100% paid premiums) including dental, vision, and drugs for you and your family.
Financial Perks: A competitive Profit Sharing Program, a Group Retirement Savings Plan, and a monthly internet allowance depending on the location.
Work-Life Balance: We support a healthy balance with hybrid work arrangements, flextime, and generous paid time off.
Growth & Development: An annual Education Support Program for training and professional growth, plus annual performance reviews and Lunch & Learns.
Enjoy free healthy snacks and drinks, team-building budgets, tenure awards, and our official "May the 4th" (Star Wars Day) company holiday!
Access to an on-site fitness facility, tennis/basketball court, and company-wide wellness challenges.
This is a hybrid position based out of our Burnaby, BC headquarters. To support our collaborative model, preference will be given to local candidates.
Please note that financial relocation assistance and immigration sponsorship are not available for this position.
We are recognized as a “Great Place to Work” for 10 consecutive years, spanning the 2016 through 2025 annual designations.
