Job summary

Integer Technologies is seeking an Autonomy Engineer to develop and deploy autonomy software for maritime robotic platforms, spanning perception, mapping, localization, and control. You will contribute across the stack, including sensor fusion and real‑time systems, in field tests and simulations.

The ideal candidate has hands‑on experience with ROS/ROS2, Kalman/particle filters, and HIL testing, and is a US citizen eligible for a DoD clearance. Relocation and hybrid work options are available.

Qualifications

• U.S. citizen with ability to obtain DoD Secret clearance.
• 2+ years of professional experience developing, deploying, or integrating autonomy software/hardware systems.
• Experience implementing autonomy algorithms for perception, mapping, localization and/or control.
• Integrate sensors (GPS, IMU, camera, LiDAR, sonar) for robust sensor fusion and situational awareness.
• Strong proficiency in C++ and Python; experience with real‑time middleware (ROS/ROS2, DDS, MQTT).
• Knowledge of particle filters or EKF for state estimation; deep understanding of autonomy frameworks and multi‑agent systems.

Responsibilities

• Deploy autonomy algorithms across the full software stack in simulation and on physical maritime robotics.
• Work with GPS, IMU, LiDAR, cameras to improve navigation and situational awareness.
• Implement probabilistic decision-making for autonomous behavior in partially observable environments.
• Set up and use HIL environments and high-fidelity simulations for algorithm validation.
• Conduct field tests and simulations to validate autonomy performance and refine designs.
• Create clear technical documentation and deployment guides.
