About the role

We are seeking a Perception Engineer to develop the systems that enable our autonomous machines to understand and interact with the physical world. You will work on perception problems at the intersection of computer vision, machine learning, robotics, and autonomous systems, building models and systems that transform real-world sensor data into reliable representations of the environment. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 3-5 years of relevant experience working with perception systems and computer vision & machine learning models
  • Strong software engineering skills in Python and/or C++
  • Experience developing perception systems for autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, industrial automation, or other embodied systems
  • Experience with camera, LiDAR, radar, IMU, or other robotic sensor modalities
  • Experience with multi-modal or multi-sensor architectures
  • Knowledge of 3D geometry, coordinate transformations, calibration, localization, or state estimation
