About the Role
Build the state-estimation and sensor-fusion backbone of our autonomous aerial systems, developing robust vehicle-state estimation for high-dynamic flight and GNSS-degraded or GNSS-denied environments.
Responsibilities
- Fuse IMUs, cameras, optical flow, airspeed, GNSS, barometers and other sensors into reliable low-latency estimates.
- Develop, integrate and deploy VIO, visual odometry, ego-motion optical flow and inertial-estimation approaches.
- Own temporal calibration, sensor synchronisation, coordinate frames and estimator consistency.
- Diagnose drift, bias, observability and timing problems from first principles.
- Work directly with real flight logs and hardware to reproduce estimator failures and rapidly improve performance.
- Build graceful degradation when individual sensors become unreliable or unavailable.
- Quantify estimator uncertainty and expose meaningful confidence and health information to downstream autonomy and control systems.
- Evaluate alternative estimation architectures including direct velocity estimation and continuous-time approaches where they provide advantages at high dynamics.
Requirements
- Strong practical experience in robotics state estimation, localization or inertial estimation.
- Deep understanding of IMU-based estimation and multi-sensor fusion.
- Strong experience with EKF, error-state filtering or comparable nonlinear-estimation techniques.
- Practical experience with VIO, visual odometry, optical flow or closely related systems.
- Strong understanding of rigid-body transformations and coordinate frames.
- Strong C++ skills.
- Experience deploying estimators onto real robots or vehicles.
- Strong understanding of sensor calibration and time synchronization.
- Experience analyzing raw sensor data, logs and estimator performance.
- Ability to work with high-rate, noisy and imperfect real-world measurements.
