Tech Stack
Description
You will architect the fallback stack for an L4 trucking program, defining how the vehicle detects uncertainty, executes minimal risk maneuvers, and scales across autonomy programs. This role involves designing interfaces to perception, behavior, planning, and control, as well as providing technical leadership.
Requirements
- Bachelors or Masters in CS, Robotics, EE/ME or related field
- 6+ years building autonomy software for L4 autonomous driving systems
- Strong programming skills in C++
- Experience designing or implementing fallback or degraded driving behaviors in autonomous driving stack
- Hands-on experience integrating multiple autonomy subsystems into cohesive system architecture
Responsibilities
- Define architecture for L4 trucking fallback stack including interfaces to perception, behavior, planning, control, and primary autonomy stack
- Design strategies for degraded driving, minimal risk maneuvers, and transitions to remote assistance
- Specify and review algorithms that detect autonomy degradation and trigger fallback behaviors or remote intervention
- Work closely with behavior, planning, and perception engineers to align safety logic and trajectories with fallback requirements
- Architect interfaces between vehicle stack and remote assistance platform for tele-guidance and safe maneuver completion
