Senior Perception Software Engineer
Job description
At Pickle Robot, we're on a mission to automate global supply chains with Physical AI. Our robots work alongside warehouse teams to unload trucks and containers — one of the toughest, most understaffed jobs in logistics — making the work safer, faster, and more efficient for the people doing it. Loading trucks comes next, followed by the Dill Autonomy Engine: generalized autonomy that will eventually orchestrate robots across entire logistics processes.
Job responsibilities
- Drive the accuracy and precision of our localization and state estimation pipelines. Ensure reliable pose estimation of the robot's mobile base and scene components.
- Develop advanced obstacle mapping for collision avoidance that thrives in messy environments.
- Implement and optimize point cloud processing algorithms tailored for real-time edge compute.
- Architect a robust software stack that efficiently parses and interfaces with the outputs of our machine learning models, integrating novel perception pipelines seamlessly into the core production codebase.
- Improve and automate multi-sensor calibration routines. You will manage tolerance stacks and ensure high-fidelity spatial alignment across our sensor suites, guaranteeing a single source of truth for the robot.
