Job Description

About the Role
We are looking for an expert in biometric recognition and computer vision to help us build a proprietary contactless fingerprint recognition SDK . The core objective is to turn raw images of a hand/finger captured by a smartphone camera into standards-compliant fingerprint templates that can be submitted to government or enterprise APIs for verification. This is not about integrating an existing SDK — we need someone who can architect and deliver the underlying technology .

Responsibilities

  • Fingerprint Template Generation : Develop algorithms to extract usable fingerprint templates from camera-based fingerphotos.

  • Image Processing Pipeline : Implement preprocessing (segmentation, enhancement, normalization) to make captures usable across lighting, angles, and devices.

  • Liveness Detection : Integrate Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) to prevent spoofing, aligned with ISO/IEC 30107-3 .

  • Standards Compliance : Ensure outputs meet ISO/IEC 19794-2, ANSI/NIST ITL, WSQ formats so they can be recognized by government/enterprise systems.

  • SDK/API Delivery : Package the solution into a developer-friendly SDK or API with full documentation, sample code, and integration support.

  • Performance & Benchmarking : Test against NIST/NFIQ 2 quality scores and benchmark accuracy, latency, and robustness in real-world conditions.

  • Integration Support : Work with mobile developers to integrate into iOS/Android apps and with backend teams for API submission.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience building fingerprint or palm recognition algorithms (minutiae extraction, ridge analysis, template generation).

  • Strong background in computer vision and image processing (segmentation, denoising, feature extraction).

  • Hands-on with OpenCV, TensorFlow, PyTorch, CUDA , and mobile deployment (TensorFlow Lite, Core ML).

  • Familiar with biometric standards : ISO/IEC 19794-2, ANSI/NIST ITL, WSQ compression, NFIQ 2 image quality.

  • Knowledge of liveness detection / PAD (ISO/IEC 30107-3).

  • Track record of building SDKs/APIs with developer documentation and integration support.

  • Experience working with secure systems (root of trust, data encryption, secure provisioning) is a plus.

  • Advanced degree (MS/PhD) in Computer Vision, Machine Learning, or related field preferred.

What Success Looks Like

  • A working SDK/API that can take a smartphone-captured fingerphoto and generate a standards-compliant fingerprint template.

  • Templates are accepted by a government verification API and pass quality scoring (NFIQ 2).

  • The pipeline is robust to real-world conditions (different devices, lighting, angles).

  • Liveness detection is integrated and resilient against common spoofing methods.

  • Deliverables include SDK/API, documentation, sample integration code, and performance benchmarks.
