Pose and Localization Engineer

We’re seeking very strong Pose and Localization Software Engineers to build scalable solutions for pose estimation in the construction environment. These solutions will run on heavy machinery and in rugged environments estimating the state of the machine as it terraforms the earth around it. Redundancy is critical for safety, and we are building multiple redundant inputs including GPS, inertial measurements, visual odometry, scan matching, and more. The final solution will degrade smoothly from highly precise estimates when all inputs are available, to safe and functional performance in degraded conditions.

This is a broad job opening, and we are looking for backgrounds ranging from state estimation to SLAM. Your solution will incorporate both backend estimation and graph-SLAM approaches as well as frontend inputs like scan matching. If you have a background in any of GNSS/INS sensor fusion, visual odometry, LIDAR ICP, sensor calibration, graph-based SLAM, or filter-based estimation, please apply!

Successful candidates will be strong hands on engineers who know the math, but also write high quality production code. Ideal candidates will have deployed estimation systems at scale, and understand the need for performance evaluation and testing in the real world as well as offline. Exceptional candidates understand both the algorithms and the sensors that produce the inputs.  You will work closely with multiple software teams across the company to root cause vehicle and system-level defects from multiple sources.
