• Develop high-performance computer vision and deep learning primitives on specialized accelerator chips
• Deploy and optimize our software stack on embedded hardware platforms
• Build and integrate camera, radar, LiDAR, and other sensor systems
• Develop systems for time-synchronized multi-sensor data recording (PTP, triggering, timecode)
• Support selection, integration, and bring-up of embedded systems
• Collaborate closely with perception teams to ensure robust and high-performance operation

We’re looking for:

• Strong experience in low-level and embedded software development (C/C++)
• Solid understanding of Linux and OS-level programming
• Experience with embedded systems
• Scripting skills (Python, Shell)
• Basic knowledge of electronics

Nice to have:
