Description:
At Ouster, we build sensors and tools for engineers, roboticists, and researchers, so they can make the world safer and more efficient. We’ve transformed LIDAR from an analog device with thousands of components to an elegant digital device powered by one chip-scale laser array and one CMOS sensor. The result is a full range of high-resolution LIDAR sensors that deliver superior imaging at a dramatically lower price. Our advanced sensor hardware and vision algorithms are used in autonomous cars, drones and many other applications. If you’re motivated by solving big problems, we’re hiring key roles across the company and need your help!
Your role will primarily involve working on Ouster’s Blue City solution with the mission of making roads safer, reducing commute times, and cutting emissions. We develop software to provide cities with the data needed to better understand and improve their transportation network. Our small, tightknit, team consists of engineers with backgrounds in Transportation and Software Engineering, dedicated to this mission.
Our solution is based on deep learning, machine vision, and lidar. The data we provide is used to effectively plan the transportation infrastructure of cities, coordinate traffic lights across road networks, and boost pedestrian and cyclist safety. We want to alert cities to issues in a way that they can quickly take informed action.
You will be responsible for designing and developing the backend infrastructure used for remotely configuring our systems across the world, streaming lidar and road user data for visualization and further processing, storing and retrieving analytics data, and for developing safety analytics and traffic optimization applications.
Open to applicants across Canada.
