Responsibilities
- Develop and implement advanced behavior-planning algorithms for autonomous vehicles.
- Design, write, maintain, and improve efficient and scalable behavior-planning software in C++ and Python.
- Build planner modules for decision-making, multi-agent interaction modeling, rule-based and learned planning, and edge-case handling.
- Collaborate with cross-functional and engineering teams to integrate planning systems and ensure coordinated development.
- Test and validate planning algorithms in simulated and real-world scenarios.
- Analyze system performance and implement improvements for high-frequency replanning and minimal-latency navigation.
- Maintain documentation for code, algorithms, and system designs.
Requirements
- Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
- At least 3 years of industry experience in autonomous driving, robotics, or a related field.
- Proficiency in modern C++ and object-oriented programming.
- Skill in Python for rapid prototyping and testing.
- Strong debugging, profiling, and code-optimization abilities.
- Deep understanding of behavior-planning methods including state machines, behavior trees, and probabilistic planning.
- Familiarity with path-planning algorithms such as A*, RRT, D*, and optimization-based methods.
- Preferred qualifications include machine-learning knowledge for behavior prediction and planning, ROS or ROS2 experience, real-time high-frequency replanning experience, and expertise in optimization and probabilistic models.
- A Master’s degree or PhD in Robotics, AI, Mathematics, or a related field focused on planning, optimization, or control theory is preferred.
