Software Engineer - Collision Avoidance System Metrics

Job description

The Collision Avoidance System (CAS) is responsible for detecting and reacting to imminent collision situations in support of our vehicle’s overall safety goals. CAS Perception is responsible for processing raw sensor data from our vehicle’s world-class sensor suite using a combination of geometric, interpretable algorithms and deep learning to detect near-collisions with obstacles along our intended driving path, in the most challenging dense urban environments and under tight compute resource constraints.

The CAS Verification & Validation (CAS V&V) is a multidisciplinary team data, software and systems engineers defining and building metrics to measure the Collision Avoidance System…

Job responsibilities

  • Apply distributed computing algorithms to analyze petabytes of urban driving data.
  • Develop metrics and tools to analyze errors and system improvements.
  • Work closely with CAS engineers to evaluate system performance.
  • Collaborate with Perception engineers to define metrics for autonomous driving.
  • Partner with Planning engineers to measure performance in complex urban environments.

Job requirements

  • BS, MS, or PhD degree in computer science or a related field
  • Fluency in C++ and/or Python
  • Extensive experience with programming and algorithm design
  • Experience with analysis of latency for safety-critical software systems
  • Experience with petabyte-scale distributed computing (Spark, Databricks, generic MapReduce pipelines)
  • Background in Bayesian statistics
