ROLE SUMMARY

Join the autonomy-stack team to research, implement and harden state-of-the-art perception algorithms that let mobile robots see, understand and safely navigate challenging environments, from object detection and terrain mapping to docking-structure detection and anomaly alerts.
Environment: Mobile robots for warehouses, factories, green-houses.
Tech Stack: Python (model training) | C++ | Rust (deployment).
Collaboration: Navigation & Fleet-management teams | QA | Hardware.

MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES

• Contribute to the implementation of various components of our robot perception system (e.g. object detection/tracking, terrain mapping, situation classification, structure detection during docking, and anomaly detection).
• Develop/improve the implementation of each step of our sensor data processing pipeline as well documented industry ready software modules and libraries – Currently we use Python (for neural network model training) and Rust/C++ (for deployment).
• Carry out QA of the perception algorithms on the robot during prerelease testing.
• Help build benchmarks to automatically test the performance of the perception system in a range of edge cases.
• Help build tools that allow us to monitor the performance of the perception system when deployed in the field.
• Provide support and issue triage for deployments of the robot.
• Carry out testing and characterization of cameras, laser scanners and other sensor devices.Work closely with other teams (e.g. navigation team and fleet management team) to ensure operational requirements are met.
