  • relocation support and visa sponsorship
  • learning and development budgets
  • health insurance
  • dental
  • enhanced maternity and paternity leave
Responsibilities
  • Lead offline 3D reconstruction from vehicle sensor data in dynamic scenes, integrating localization, mapping, state estimation and sensor fusion
  • Produce offline 3D geometry and best-estimate ego motion across heterogeneous platforms for validation, data enrichment and model development
  • Turn raw sensor data into reliable, quality-assessed ground-truth outputs to support downstream tasks
  • Debug across hardware, software, and ML systems; move between research exploration and pragmatic engineering execution
  • Communicate clearly with research, engineering, and product teams; own contributions in a fast-moving environment
Key requirements
