We need a developer to build a **self-hosted facial recognition system** using available open-source/pre-trained libraries.

We do **not** want to use paid services such as Azure Face API, AWS Rekognition, Face++ etc.

The system should run on our own server and provide a simple **web service/API** which our existing PHP application can call.
