What you have
3+ years of experience with demonstrated ability to create and deploy real-time perception systems
Have a MS or PhD in a relevant program such as Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or similar
Experience with classical techniques such as object detection, clustering, filtering, occupancy grids, data association, and tracking algorithms
Experience with techniques such as Kalman Filtering, Bayesian Methods, and Sensor Fusion (with LiDAR/IMU/GNSS/Camera)
Experience with 3D data and representations (point clouds, meshes, trees, etc.)
Strong fundamentals of linear algebra and 3D geometry
Highly skilled in C++ development and experience with the Linux environment
Skilled in scripting languages such as Python and Bash
Nice-to-have
Knowledge of working principles for RADARs or LiDARs
