  • Strong proficiency in Python, C++, and deep learning libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch) along with experience using simulation and visualization tools.
  • Demonstrable experience in deploying sense and act algorithms to enable safe and efficient control for vehicles.
  • Ability to work hands-on with hardware and software debugging in a real-world automotive testing environment.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, cross-functional team atmosphere and deliver results under tight deadlines.
  • Exceptional analytical skills and the capability to tackle problems with creative solutions.
  • Excellent communication skills to effectively share complex technical information with other team members and stakeholders.
