Responsibilities
- Design and implement behavioral motion-planning logic for autonomous-vehicle actions such as lane changes, merges, yields, and agent interactions.
- Develop and optimize motion-planning algorithms integrating geometric path reasoning and velocity reasoning into cohesive trajectories.
- Architect geometry and velocity systems that generate feasible, compliant, comfortable, and safe paths and velocity profiles.
- Model complex driving scenarios and agent interactions for the behavioral planner’s world model.
- Design trajectory-ranking costs that balance ETA, comfort, and safety.
- Analyze, test, debug, and investigate root causes of system performance issues across scenarios.
- Collaborate with Prediction, Perception, and Control teams to connect environmental understanding with vehicle motion.
Requirements
- B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
- Experience in autonomous systems, robotics, or automotive software development.
- Strong proficiency in C++ for complex, real-time algorithms.
- Understanding of robotics fundamentals, decision-making, motion planning, control theory, trajectory ranking, search, and optimization algorithms.
- Related experience with motion planning, trajectory optimization, world-environment reasoning, trajectory ranking, or cost design.
Benefits
- The role includes bonus, equity, and benefits in addition to base salary.
