We seek a talented and technically sophisticated staff engineer/tech lead for our calibration group.</p> <p>Building safe autonomous driving systems requires keeping a diverse sensor suite in calibration - that is, knowing where the sensors are with respect to the vehicle, and their properties such as lens geometry. We seek a talented lead for our calibration group, responsible for calibration both pre-customer and once the vehicle is in customer hands. The challenge is significant - these vehicles may be in customer hands for many years without maintenance. But the opportunity is also immense - the lead in this role will shape the vision for calibration across the company, work broadly with key players both within Latitude and in the broader Ford entity, and be key in designing these complex systems that help to keep the product functioning correctly.</p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>What you’ll do:&nbsp;</strong></span></p> <ul> <li>Design and develop novel calibration solutions that can work in a factory, or in unstruc
