Tech Lead (ML & CV) at Copernicus Autonomous Control Systems
Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMoritz Hambach is a Tech Lead in ML and Computer Vision with 8 years of experience building perception systems for autonomous vehicles, currently leading camera- and lidar-based perception at Copernicus Autonomous Control Systems (formerly Kopernikus/Ford-acquired). He combines a Physics PhD and hands-on ML engineering to improve 6-DoF pose estimation, camera calibration, monocular depth and synthetic-data pipelines (NeRF-based) across factory and parking infrastructure deployments. As an early hire who scaled the ML team to five engineers, he pairs technical depth with hiring and mentoring experience and has stepped into interim leadership when needed. His background in precision experimental physics (record cold-molecule imaging published in Nature Physics) informs a data-driven approach to sensor fusion and ground-truth generation. Based in Auckland, he’s comfortable moving between research-grade rigour and production engineering to deliver robust, real-world perception stacks.
