Job Description

Tasks

• Design and develop software modules that allow different components in the navigation system such as the planners, controllers, and environment models to work seamlessly. This involves designing and developing component interfaces, state machine or behavior tree implementations, plugin frameworks, configuration and constraint management systems and etc., to be used and shared by different modules in the navigation system and autonomy stack.
• Develop software libraries, frameworks and tools that allow Research Engineers to easily convert prototypes to testable modules that run on real time systems. We expect you to always be on the lookout for improvements to the software systems and libraries that make up the backbone of our autonomy stack.
• Work closely with research engineers to co-develop research prototypes into operational ready software modules in ROS2.
• Contribute to development of other software libraries and tooling required by the autonomy stack such as data loggers, diagnostics managers etc.
• Develop profiling, benchmarking, and testing tooling to facilitate the development of robust autonomy software.
• Provide leadership to software system designs and software documentation and maintenance.
• In addition to the above, you will also be assisting on system architecture and design, mapping out software tooling technology roadmap and executing them together with the rest of the team.

Qualifications

• A degree related to Computer Science or Engineering and 2 years of industry experience
• Knowledge or experience in machine learning, computer vision, control system, or related discipline would also be an advantage.
• Proven experience and knowledge of software development processes, and design and architectural patterns.
• Ability to take technical leadership on topics related to Software Design and Development.
