Careers at Russella: Build the Future of Ethical Computer Vision
We are reimagining facial anthropometry, client-side neural inference, and digital privacy. Join an ambitious, remote-first team of computer vision researchers, WebAssembly systems engineers, and ethical designers building technologies that respect human autonomy.
Why Build at Russella?
At Russella, we reject the legacy paradigm of surveillance capitalism and centralized biometric data harvesting. We believe the future of AI belongs on edge devices—fast, private, and mathematically verifiable. When you work with us, your code runs directly in millions of browsers without transmitting a single byte of private facial biometrics to a cloud server.

Current Open Positions
1. Senior Computer Vision Engineer (Rust & WebGPU)
Location: Remote (UK/Europe) | Type: Full-Time
We are seeking an experienced computer vision engineer to lead the optimization of our dense 468-point 3D facial landmark detection pipeline. You will be compiling high-performance Rust neural runtimes to WebAssembly, optimizing WGSL shaders for WebGPU hardware acceleration, and reducing memory latency across mobile browsers.
- Deep proficiency with Rust, C++, and SIMD acceleration.
- Hands-on experience deploying quantized ONNX/TensorFlow models via ONNX Runtime Web or TensorFlow.js.
- Understanding of camera optical distortion correction and 3D mesh transformation.
2. Biometric Anthropometry Researcher & Scientific Writer
Location: Hybrid London or Remote | Type: Full-Time / Part-Time
Work directly with our Editorial Board to translate complex craniofacial, cephalometric, and aesthetic literature into verified computational metrics and educational articles. You will uphold our strict guidelines published in our Editorial Policy and ensure compliance with our clinical Disclaimer.
- Master’s or PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Anatomy, Physical Anthropology, or Computer Science.
- Demonstrated track record of scientific publication and meticulous fact-checking.
- Passion for ethical AI and demystifying body image science for the general public.
3. Senior Full-Stack Web Application Architect
Location: Remote (UK/Europe) | Type: Full-Time
Build the modern interactive UI/UX for AuraFace AI, client dashboards, and developer API documentation. You will architect accessible, sub-second web applications leveraging modern CSS, canvas rendering, and privacy-first local storage architecture.
Our Transparent 4-Step Hiring Process
- Application Review: We review your resume, code samples, or scientific publications (typically within 5 business days).
- 30-Minute Culture & Technical Intro: A casual conversation with our founders discussing mutual goals and engineering values.
- Practical Skills Challenge: A realistic, paid 2-hour technical exercise (e.g., optimizing a WebAssembly landmark calculation or analyzing an anthropometric dataset)—no whiteboard leetcode puzzles.
- Final Team Interview & Offer: Meet your future collaborators on the engineering and editorial teams.
