  • Confer with domain experts across a variety of fields to design software and to obtain information on project limitations and capabilities, performance requirements and interfaces.
  • Work on world-class solutions to the autonomy industry's leading infrastructure problems.
  • Design, develop, and maintain software solutions for autonomy and mobility products, particularly advanced behavior and motion planning algorithms for off-road vehicles.
  • Work across the technology stack, handling full-stack development, infrastructure, simulation, testing, and more.
  • Create behavior and motion planning with collision avoidance systems for safe, efficient and robust algorithm, scalable, and efficient software that meets both customer and internal needs.
