Ideal candidate

A seasoned robotics leader who thrives with real ownership in ambiguous, fast-moving environments. You care about bridging research to production on real vehicles and mentoring others to deliver robust systems.

Requirements

• Significant experience developing robotics or autonomous-driving systems involving LiDAR, cameras and 3D sensor data
• Strong experience with target-based or targetless sensor calibration and registration, including LiDAR-to-camera alignment
• Strong understanding of 3D geometry, state estimation and optimisation including nonlinear least-squares and factor graphs
• Experience with sensor timing and motion effects including time synchronisation, sweep distortion, rolling-shutter and motion compensation
• Strong software engineering skills in C++ and/or Python taking robotics algorithms from prototype to production
• Experience defining evaluation methodologies, datasets and metrics for calibration and 3D sensing quality
• Demonstrated technical leadership including setting technical direction and mentoring engineers
• Experience with LiDAR odometry, SLAM or mapping including motion compensation and deskewing
• Experience with metric-depth foundation models for calibration, registration or 3D reconstruction
