World is a network of real humans, built on privacy-preserving proof-of-human technology, and powered by a globally inclusive financial network that enables the free flow of digital assets for all. It is built to connect, empower, and be owned by everyone. This opportunity would be with Tools for Humanity.

About the AI & Biometrics Team:

The AI & Biometrics team is building a biometric recognition system that can work reliably with more than a billion users and enables them to claim their free share of WLD. We use cutting-edge machine learning models deployed on custom hardware to enable high-quality image acquisition, identification, and fraud prevention, all while requiring minimal user interaction. We are building a biometric recognition and fraud detection engine that works on the 1bn people scale. Therefore, its performance needs to out-perform all the current recognition technologies. We leverage our powerful custom-made iris recognition and presentation attack detection device, the Orb, combined with the latest research from the field of AI and Deep Learning.
