Play a key role in shaping how autonomous ground systems navigate safely, efficiently, and robustly through complex environments by developing motion planning capabilities.

Responsibilities

Take technical ownership of motion planning capabilities, contributing to the architecture, technical roadmap, and quality of the systems that enable autonomous ground vehicles to navigate complex environments.
Design and develop robust motion planning solutions, translating perception inputs, localization data, maps, mission objectives, and vehicle constraints into safe and executable decisions and trajectories.
Contribute hands-on to complex engineering challenges, investigating planning failures, improving algorithms, debugging system-level issues, and optimizing performance for real-world vehicle operation.
Drive strong engineering decisions, leading technical discussions, challenging assumptions, evaluating trade-offs, and helping teams make pragmatic and sustainable architectural choices.
Translate operational and product needs into technical solutions, working with relevant stakeholders to define clear requirements, priorities, interfaces, and implementation plans.
