Key Responsibilities:

• Design and implement state estimation pipelines for autonomous machines, including pose, velocity, and system state estimation.
• Fuse data from multiple sensors (e.g. LiDAR, Radar, cameras, IMUs, GNSS, wheel odometry) using probabilistic frameworks.
• Develop and maintain filter-based and optimization-based estimators (e.g. EKF/UKF, factor graphs, smoothing).
• Model sensor noise, biases, and failure modes; design estimators robust to partial sensor dropout and degraded conditions.
• Integrate state estimation modules with perception, planning, and control stacks.
• Validate and benchmark estimation performance using simulation, logged datasets, and real-world field tests.
• Support on-machine deployment and debugging, including tuning estimators in production environments.
• Collaborate closely with robotics software, perception, and controls engineers to ensure system-level performance.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Hands-on experience with state estimation algorithms (e.g. Kalman Filters, particle filters, SLAM back-ends).
• Experience working with real robotic sensor data and understanding its limitations in the field.
• Proficiency in C++ and/or Python for robotics software development.
• Familiarity with ROS / ROS2 or similar robotic middleware.
• Strong debugging and analytical skills, with the ability to reason about system-level failures.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience in off-road, mining, construction, or agricultural robotics.
• Knowledge of SLAM, localization, and mapping in GPS-denied or degraded environments.
• Familiarity with factor graph libraries (e.g. GTSAM, Ceres) or similar optimization tools.
• Understanding of vehicle dynamics and integration with control systems.
• Experience validating robotics systems through simulation, HIL, and field testing.
• Comfort working across the full stack—from theory and algorithms to on-machine deployment.
