      <guid>https://dev.to/elie_khneifis/hiring-arai-software-engineers-frontend-backend-remote-or-lebanon-based-submillimeter-1a7f</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Type: Contract (3–6 months) with potential for extension&lt;br&gt;
Location: Remote (Worldwide)&lt;br&gt;
Project Start: ASAP&lt;br&gt;
Compensation: Competitive &amp;amp; based on expertise and deliverables&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Project Overview
We are developing a cross-platform AR application designed for the dental and surgical sectors, capable of submillimeter-accurate 3D overlays on real-world anatomy and objects. The app integrates AI-driven segmentation, real-time tracking, and high-precision pose estimation for medical components (e.g., brackets, retainers, implants).
We’re assembling a small elite engineering team to bring this to life.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open Roles&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Frontend Engineer (AR/3D Focus)
Key Responsibilities:&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Build a responsive AR interface for mobile (ARKit, ARCore, WebXR)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Integrate real-time 3D overlays using Three.js, Unity, or similar&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Implement real-time camera calibration &amp;amp; distortion correction&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ensure overlays are stable, accurate, and submillimeter precise&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Work closely with AI and backend engineers for pose data rendering&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Must-Have Skills:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Proven experience in real-time AR applications (mobile or web)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Strong in Three.js, WebGL, Unity3D, or React Three Fiber&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Knowledge of marker-based and markerless SLAM&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Understanding of camera calibration, tracking pipelines&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Experience with real-world scale mapping and precision testing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Familiarity with WebXR, ARKit, ARCore&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bonus:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Prior work in AR, robotics, or industrial AR&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Experience in depth sensors, LiDAR, or custom tracking SDKs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;🔶 Backend/AI Engineer (Pose Estimation + Data Pipelines)&lt;br&gt;
a-Key Responsibilities:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Develop AI models for 3D model segmentation and pose estimation&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Create real-time backends for model-data sync (Node.js / Python)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Integrate TensorFlow, ONNX, or PyTorch into the application&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Manage APIs to supply tracking corrections to the frontend&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Optimize for latency, performance, and model-light deployment on edge devices&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Must-Have Skills:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Strong experience in computer vision and pose estimation&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Experience with OpenCV, MediaPipe, or custom CV pipelines&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Knowledge of model compression for mobile deployment (TFLite, ONNX)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Backend development experience in Python, FastAPI, or Node.js&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Solid understanding of 3D file formats: STL, OBJ, GLTF&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bonus:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Prior experience working on dental, medical, or robotic vision systems&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Experience creating synthetic datasets or training CV models for &amp;lt;1 mm accuracy&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Familiarity with AWS, GCP, or Firebase for backend scaling&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;5-. What We Require&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You must aim for submillimeter accuracy in your implementation&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You are self-driven, detail-oriented, and deeply experienced&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fluent communication in English (written + spoken)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Strong documentation habits and clean code practices&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ability to join meetings 2–3 times/week (GMT+3 preferred but flexible)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What We Offer&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A unique, innovative product with medical impact&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Opportunity to work on bleeding-edge AR and CV tech&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Flexible remote work environment&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Prompt payments and milestone-based contract&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Potential for equity or long-term retention (optional)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;🧾 How to Apply&lt;br&gt;
Send your:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;CV or LinkedIn&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Portfolio or app links (especially 3D/AR/AI projects)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Short note about your relevant experience with submillimeter precision&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For frontend: links to live demos or GitHub repos&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For backend: details of CV/AI models built for AR or 3D&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
