Senior Software Engineer, Perception State Estimation

Latitude AI (lat.ai) is an automated driving technology company developing a hands-free, eyes-off driver assist system for next-generation Ford vehicles at scale. We're driven by the opportunity to reimagine what it's like to drive and make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone.

The State Estimation team specializes in cutting-edge multi-object tracking, scene estimation, and machine learning technology. We develop advanced Bayesian filters, graph models, and deep learning models for tracking static and dynamic actors and estimating road features. Our focus is on creating compute-efficient models for tasks such as closed world multi-object tracking, track-to-detection data association, object motion forecasting, uncertainty estimation, lane line temporal smoothing, and open world scene tracking.

As a Senior Software Engineer in Perception State Estimation, you will:

• Develop machine learning models and Bayesian algorithms for multi-object tracking, state estimation, and uncertainty estimation
• Create deep learning models with temporal fusion for scene state estimation
• Design estimation algorithms for road feature and shape estimation
• Transition solutions from the lab to test tracks and public roads
• Collaborate with perception experts and roboticists on algorithm design and implementation
• Build and maintain industry-leading software practices
• Show initiative in a fast-paced, innovative environment

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or related field with 4+ years of experience (or Master's with 2+ years, or PhD)
• Strong knowledge and experience in machine learning, particularly in developing and deploying deep learning solutions
• Experience in multi-object tracking systems using classical or machine learning algorithms
• Expertise in deep learning, Bayesian filtering, and optimization algorithms
• Proven experience in shipping perception software products
• At least 4 years of development experience in Python/C++ environment

Nice to have:

• Ph.D. with machine learning focus or equivalent experience
• Experience in developing and deploying temporal computer vision models
