Decision-making and motion planning in uncertain and dynamic environments are the primary responsibilities of a robotaxi's software architecture. From there, various actuators must be controlled to precisely maneuver the robot according to the planned trajectory.
The Planner Motion team develops motion planning techniques and control algorithms for a safe and comfortable ride experience based on the capabilities of our unique bidirectional vehicle platform. We're seeking a software engineer with an advanced degree and experience building real-time motion planning and control algorithms for autonomous vehicles.
In this role, you will:
- Create principled algorithmic improvements to specific areas of driving behavior and implement those changes in our code base.
- Lead on-vehicle drive reviews to generate actionable feedback on driving performance. Use this experience to help the team learn and make improvements.
- Attend conferences and survey literature to stay informed on the most recent developments in the fields of Robotics and Motion Planning.
- Programming skills in C++
- Master's degree in computer science or related field
- Understanding of vehicle dynamics and controls
- Extensive experience with programming and algorithm design
- Strong mathematical and geometrical skills
- at least 5 years of relevant experience
- Significant contributions to geometric- and/or sampling-based planning algorithms
- Practical experience with autonomous vehicles
- Experience with pose estimation and 3D data
