Key skills for this role
We are looking for an experienced senior or staff software engineer to help us build Avride’s Localization and Mapping subsystems. You will design and implement on-board localization algorithms and cloud mapping algorithms, improve the precision and reliability of rover localization in hard-to-navigate environments, and improve and speed up cloud mapping SLAM-based processes of lidar map building. You will be able to make data-driven decisions and innovate at one of the exciting frontiers of technological advancement.
Avride is a rapidly developing company in the autonomous vehicle and delivery robot industry. We develop autonomous vehicle technology from scratch, leveraging the strong technical background of our core team and over seven years of experience in autonomous vehicle development. The Localization team is responsible for providing precise rover location to all the components of the autonomous rover pipeline, like perception, behavior layer, and control. We calculate the position and the orientation of the rover with centimeter and fraction-of-a-degree accuracy, dozens of times per second, and in all conditions. Our most valuable asset is people, each with many years of experience in robotics, EKF, ICP, SLAM algorithms, distributed data processing, software architecture, and machine learning, working together as a motivated, effective, and friendly team.
