Senior Software Engineer, Mapping - Autonomous Vehicles at NVIDIA Corporation
Redmond, WA 98073
About the Job
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer for Autonomous Vehicles in the DRIVE mapping team. A detailed HD map is required for localization, it provides information crucial for driving, and it increases safety via redundant systems. In this role, you will help craft and guide our outstanding low-cost map building solution, which is the future of NVIDIA's autonomous vehicle mapping.
We are seeking the best engineers passionate about solving problems for self-driving cars with a background in software design, embedded software, working on real-time software and operating systems. Are you interested in inventing human level AI for navigation in the unconstrained world under any conditions? If so, join us!
**What You'll Be Doing**
* Develop core functionality for map-based driving.
* Download map content on the fly using appropriate slicing based on car requests in a safety critical manner.
* Handle real-time system signals in the car running all over the world.
* Design and integrate algorithmic solutions into the core of NVIDIA AV.
* Fuse data from the map after localization with perception.
* Write safe embedded software code to run in real-time systems.
* Develop highly efficient product code in C++ and make use of high algorithmic parallelism offered by GPGPU programming (CUDA).
* Produce code and designs following automotive quality and safety standards.
**What We Need To See**
* BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
* 3+ years of proven experience building robust software.
* At least 3 years of previous C++ development experience.
* Passion for robotics and autonomous vehicles.
* Drive to learn new things and solve meaningful problems.
* Great communication and cross-team collaboration.
* Independent and analytical engineering skills.
**Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd**
* Software development on embedded or automotive platforms.
* Experience with GPGPU programming (CUDA).
* Runtime optimization of code using profilers.
* Experience with API and framework design.
* Background with 3D geometry and graphics.
We believe that realizing self-driving vehicles will be a defining contribution of our generation (e.g. traffic accidents are responsible for ~1.25 million deaths per year world-wide). We have the funding and scale, but we need your help on our team. NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers with some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working here. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you!
