Senior Software Engineer, Motion Planning

As a Senior Software Engineer, Planning for self-driving trucks, you will work on developing cutting-edge software that takes data from a multitude of sensors such as cameras, radars and lidars, and converts them into actionable information for downstream components like prediction and planning.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop and deploy motion planning software to support PlusAI’s planning, using the latest techniques in lateral and longitudinal motion planning.
• Utilize latest C++ numerical optimization frameworks (e.g. qpOasys) and industry standard software tools (git, ROS, etc.) to integrate new lateral and longitudinal motion planning algorithms into our production system.
• Perform system level diagnostics and tuning using in-house visualization tools and open-source visualization platforms (e.g. webviz)
• Use good oral and written communication skills to collaborate with other engineers to produce system designs that are approved at a high level before software implementation begins

Required Qualifications:

• MS or PhD in Computer/Software Engineering, Robotics, Robotic Systems Development, or related field.
• Experience developing production code in C++, with python experience as an added advantage.
• Applied robotics experience in any of: Robotics/ Motion Planning/Computer Vision/Machine Learning
• Strong oral and written communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

• PhD + 1-2 years or MS + 3-4 years of experience
