Build the brains behind self-driving cars and trucks
Autonomous vehicle engineers design and develop the perception, planning, and control systems that enable vehicles to navigate safely without human input, combining sensor fusion, machine learning, computer vision, and robotics.
You review overnight simulation results, debug a LiDAR-camera fusion pipeline, tune a motion planner for smoother lane changes, analyze edge case logs from road testing, and collaborate with safety engineers on ISO 26262 compliance — blending AI, robotics, and safety-critical engineering every day.
