About this job

THE ROLE As a Software Engineer on Robot Autonomy, you will build and own the state estimation that tells our robots how they are moving and where they are. You'll fuse data from IMUs, cameras, LiDAR, GNSS, and platform-specific odometry into accurate, real-time estimates that support reliable autonomy day and night, across different robot platforms. This is a builder's role first: you'll use the estimation methods and tools best suited to the problem, then do the engineering needed to make them work on real robots. Our robots operate in complex environments where terrain, weather, vibration, lighting, and sensor dropouts degrade measurements. We care less about novelty for its own sake and more about whether your systems perform reliably across platforms in the field.…

This is a short summary.
