Description

Staff Software Engineer w/Zoox Inc. (Foster City, CA)

 Design, implement, and validate offline mapping algorithms that allow Zoox’s robotaxi to navigate its world safely. Develop core algorithms for offline mapping pipeline, as well as tooling that allows other engineers to understand and troubleshoot map issues. Actively participate in design reviews, code reviews, writing design documents, and mentoring junior engineers in Zoox technology as well as software development best practices. Investigate, develop, and validate rigorous and cutting-edge solutions to the challenging mapping problems our cities have to offer. Collaborate in building a highly automated, scalable, multi-modality, 3D mapping system, and work on mapping algorithms in order to create algorithms that are verifiably robust, operating on diverse data across a variety of environments and conditions without human intervention. Utilize C++, Python, OpenCV and 3D geometry.

 Requires a Bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or a related technical degree. Requires 5 years of experience in a Software Engineer or related role working with robotics, software mapping or Scheduling software. Experience must include the following: working with pose estimation; simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM); probabilistic filtering; handling large data sets efficiently to develop performant code in distributed computing environments; developing computer vision algorithms; and utilizing C++, Python, OpenCV and 3D geometry. Telework permitted within commuting distance to worksite.  $264,000 - $332,000/year.  Resumes to resumes@zoox.com, use job #9345047
