Localization Systems Engineer: Autonomy & SLAM Expert

Glydways; United States; On-site; USD 120,000 - 170,000; Full time

Job summary

Glydways is expanding its localization software team to advance autonomous Glydcars. You will work on C++ onboard software, unit tests, and simulation for robust localization in GPS-denied or complex environments.

You will own requirements, testing, and HIL procedures, collaborating with safety and software teams to refine localization accuracy and calibration. A MSc is expected, with strong Python and ROS experience, in a fulltime on-site role in the United States.

Qualifications

• Experience with requirements management tools and structuring test coverage across unit, simulation, track, and HIL levels.
• Familiarity with safety qualification standards related to localization accuracy.
• MSc in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related systems engineering field.
• Hands-on and flexible/adaptable; willing to get into the details and adapt based on feedback.

Responsibilities

• Be fluent in the localization team's designs at the source-code level, with the ability to understand and reason about C++, engaging directly with the codebase.
• Own the algorithm and test requirements capture process for the localization team, including conducting reviews with autonomy software, systems, and safety teams.
• Write and own simulation and track test scenarios that validate the localization team's systems, including critical safety functions.
• Write and own Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing for the localization team.
• Champion strong unit test coverage across the localization team's codebase.
