NextDroid is looking for a smart, creative, experienced software developer to work on 3D perception and object detection, using modern point cloud processing tools and frameworks. You will be building detailed models of the world around our robots, including autonomous vehicles, using data from multiple reference grade sensors, including GNSS, IMU, video, radar, and Lidar. You will lead a small, but highly skilled and productive group of engineers. You’ll keep us abreast of current research.
REQUIRED BACKGROUND
- Extensive experience in applied image processing and computer vision, as well as machine learning
- Deep proficiency with critical elements (i.e. multiple-view geometry, stereo imaging, vision-based navigation, SLAM, and image enhancement, automated scene understanding including object detection, recognition and tracking)
- Proficiency in and desire to be writing code
- Ability to communicate with both technical and non-technical communities
- Minimum PhD + 1 year industry experience, or MS+3, or BS+5 years experience
- Verifiable track record of developing production-quality computer vision systems
OPTIONAL SKILLS / EXPERIENCE
You’ll be working with all these. Prior experience / interest will help.
- Robotics
- Embedded computing; automotive computing
- Automated scene understanding, such as object detection, recognition, and tracking
- SLAM solutions to localization and mapping; sensor fusion
- Linux
- Modern C++ (14, 17, 2x), Python
- Julia
- Professional software development tools and processes
- Producing safety-critical software
- GPU programming (CUDA, Julia)
- OpenCV
NextDroid
Early stage intelligent machine company with projects in autonomous underwater vehicles and diagnostics for autonomous vehicles, among others. Veteran leadership; alumni of MIT, CMU, and Stanford. Recognized as ‘go to’ team [working at the outside edge of customer comfort]. Track record of success with companies from launch to liquidity.
Salary commensurate with experience. Benefits include those typical for a high-growth technical company (e.g. healthcare coverage, 401k, mass transit, performance incentives).
