We are seeking a Research Engineer to join the Localization & Mapping team at Plus, focusing on the design, development and deployment of software to advance our self-driving technology. The primary focus of the role is scene reconstruction and auto labeling of the urban driving scenes.
You'll collaborate with a diverse team of researchers and engineers on core topics in computer vision, deep learning and optimization. You'll design and implement state-of-the-art algorithms in making a scalable auto labeling/mapping process, delivering significant impact to the company and the autonomous driving industry.
- Develop 3D visual reconstruction of highway and urban driving scenarios including static scenes and dynamic objects
- Identify unique and high-value driving scenes to maximize data labeling efficiency, class distribution imbalance (long-tail) challenges in autonomous driving
- Develop a distributed and automated pipeline for large scale scene reconstruction and automatic label generation
- Curate high-quality dataset for autonomous driving scenarios and design robust evaluation metrics
- Contribute to state-of-the-art perception/LLM models for perception for automated driving
- Collaborate with engineering teams including perception, prediction, planning and data infrastructure to integrate auto labeling and auto mapping pipeline for broader use
Required Skills:
- MS or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, similar technical field of study, or equivalent practical experience
- Software design and development experience in Python and C++
- Experience in 3D computer vision
Preferred Skills:
- 2-3 years of industry experience in a relevant role
- Project experience with Structure from Motion
- Experience and/or knowledge with Machine Learning/Deep Learning
- Experience and/or knowledge of NERF/Gaussian Splatting
- Experience in optimization with ceres
- Basic understanding of multi processing/threading
- Publication record in relevant venues (CVPR, ICLR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, AAAI, SIGGRAPH, ICRA, IROS, etc.)
Salary Range:
- $120,000 - $200,000 a year
Our compensations (cash and equity) are determined based on the position, your location, qualifications, and experience.
