## About the role

ML-first does not mean ML-only: every model this team ships depends on a vehicle that knows precisely where its sensors are, where it is in the world, and how confident it can be in both. This role owns that foundation, building the calibration, mapping, and localization stack that every perception and planning model is built on top of, across a multi-vehicle-class fleet spanning passenger vehicles, robotaxis, buses, and trucks. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- A demonstrated ability to work through difficult technical problems methodically, with growing independence
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Robotics, EE, Mathematics, or related field
- 2-4 years of experience in sensor calibration, SLAM, mapping, localization, or multi-sensor fusion
- Working knowledge of estimation theory, including Kalman filters, factor graphs, or optimization-based fusion
- Solid software engineering skills in C++ and/or Python, with experience contributing to production-grade robotics systems
- Exposure to autonomous driving or robotics across multiple vehicle classes
