This is a unique need with good full stack experience that can help us with building simulation tools that benchmark autonomous vehicle technology in a virtual environment. Simulation allows different modules such as perception and planning to be tested much faster and safer, and this position is to develop all of the necessary components of the simulation system. You’ll have opportunities to work on multiple projects including traffic simulation, vehicle dynamics, NPC behaviors, physics simulations and sensor simulation. Tools are going to be used by various internal R&D teams to expedite their development cycles.
