Description

Role Summary: Quantum Signal AI is looking for a motivated engineer to join our team in support of a wide array of research and development projects. Day to day, you’ll work on a variety of sensing, algorithm, and data analysis problems in support of our forward-looking mobility and robotics technologies. You will apply core engineering principles, software development practices, and an eagerness to broaden your knowledge in whatever ways our diverse project portfolio may require. We look for lifelong learners who embrace project-based workloads and who thrive both individually and in highly collaborative team settings. Work Location: We are located in Saline, Michigan. This position is in-person to encourage a culture of collaboration and mentorship. What You’ll Do: Design, develop, model, and characterize combined hardware–software systems involving sensing, localization, and communications Write custom software and leverage/integrate existing tools to solve problems in sensing, perception, and related areas Ideate, quickly evaluate, and advocate for technologies and technical approaches in early project stages Collaborate with robotics, software, mechatronic, and other research engineers as a member of various project-focused, cross-functional engineering teams Research, adapt, and prototype software implementations of sensor processing algorithms Produce high-quality documentation and present designs, analyses, results, and status updates to a variety of stakeholders Support planning, execution, and analysis of data-collection exercises and test events What You’ll Bring: Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Computer Science, or a related field Solid programming skills in problem solving, algorithm prototyping, mathematical modeling, data analysis, and visualization Proficiency with signal/image processing theory and the practical aspects of sensing systems implemented in hardware and software Familiarity with planning data collections, working with real signals, and validating models Experience with linear algebra, probability and statistics, and related scientific computing techniques Open-mindedness, curiosity, and motivation to learn new tools and technologies and to broaden, deepen, and apply your knowledge and skills to support a variety of projects Bonus Points For: Experience in any of the following areas Camera, lidar, radar, ultrasonic, RF communications, and GNSS/IMU hardware Real-time or embedded software development and machine learning Detection, classification, and state estimation algorithms Practical systems engineering (e.g., requirements, functional decomposition, and specifications) Modern video/audio codecs and compression Control system theory and the practical aspects of control systems implemented in hardware and software Proficiency in software languages and tools spanning the spectrum from prototyping to production implementations (e.g., Matlab/Simulink, Python, Java, C/C++) Familiarity with software development processes as part of a team including interface specifications, revision control, defect tracking, and continuous integration/continuous delivery You may not check every box, or your experience may look a little different from what we've outlined, but if you are excited about this role and think you can bring value to Quantum Signal AI, we encourage you to apply! What You’ll Get: Annual Bonus based on individual performance Immediate health, dental, and vision coverage options for you and your family Health and dependent care FSA Company-paid life, AD&D, and disability coverage 401(k) plan with company match Paid holidays and generous PTO based on years of relevant experience Flexible schedule options Learning and development assistance Ford AXZ-Plan vehicle discounts A relaxed, fun community and environment in which to solve interesting problems Other perks to fuel creativity such as an on-site gymnasium, free drinks and snacks, and a variety of optional team activities Candidates for positions with Quantum Signal AI must be legally authorized to work in the United States. Verification of employment eligibility will be required at the time of hire. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position. About QSAI: Founded in 1999, Quantum Signal grew up developing intelligent algorithms and AI. As our engineering R&D services expanded, we later sharpened our focus on applications and technology related to mobility, sensing, perception, autonomy, and simulation. In 2019 we became Quantum Signal AI, a subsidiary of Ford Motor developing technologies to advance their R&D efforts. We build solutions to enhance the capability, robustness, safety, and acceptance of intelligent ground vehicles in an effort to make transportation more effective and efficient for all. Our HQ in the historic Union School in Saline, MI is the perfect playground to develop this cutting-edge technology and we’re always looking for smart folks who like new challenges, learning new skills, and technical variety.
