Job Details

The Collision Avoidance System (CAS) is responsible for detecting and reacting to imminent collision situations in support of our vehicle’s overall safety goals.

    • You will develop new algorithms that consume raw sensor data input to detect dynamic entities in the world
    • You will leverage our large-scale machine learning infrastructure to discover new solutions and push the boundaries of the field
    • You will engineer software that runs on-vehicle to efficiently execute our algorithms in real time
    • You will develop metrics and tools to analyze errors and understand improvements of our systems
    • You will collaborate with engineers on the other parts of CAS Perception, CAS Verification & Validation, CAS Planner, and the Main AI teams to solve the overall Autonomous Driving problem in complex urban environments

Qualifications
