About the Role

Design and ship algorithms that determine how autonomous trucks move, encompassing motion planning, behavior, learning-based prediction and planning, and online mapping. This role involves end-to-end work from problem framing and algorithm design through implementation and on-vehicle validation, with the opportunity to drive real freight on public highways.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and improve motion planning and behavior algorithms for highway and surface-street driving.
  • Build the learning-based pipeline for prediction and planning, including data curation, model design and training, and on-vehicle integration.
  • Advance online mapping and map-building, and the real-time map signals that planning consumes.
  • Turn road and simulation cases into root-cause analysis, algorithmic fixes, and regression coverage.
  • Collaborate across perception, control, simulation, and operations to release features.

Requirements

  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Applied Math, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2+ years building production algorithms in robotics, autonomous vehicles, or a comparable real-time system.
  • Strong C++ and Python; comfortable owning performance-sensitive code that runs on-vehicle.
  • Solid foundation in at least one of: motion planning and optimization, prediction/behavior modeling, or mapping.
  • A track record of shipping algorithms that ran on real hardware or in production.
