Descripción de la vacante

Aurora is seeking a Software Engineer for the Map Build's Geometric Generation team to build the 3D spatial foundation powering the Aurora Driver. You will own algorithms that process millions of lidar logs into offline maps, tackling speed and scaling as Aurora expands to new routes.

You will design and implement geometric map-generation algorithms, optimize large-scale pose-graph, and collaborate to define data contracts and integration requirements, with a focus on reliability and performance

Formación

• BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 6+ years of professional software development experience in C++ with track record of leading technically ambiguous, multi-quarter projects.
• Hands‑on experience with 3D geometry and point‑cloud processing, such as registration (ICP, scan matching), pose‑graph or nonlinear least‑squares optimization, surface reconstruction or lidar‑based SLAM/mapping.
• Strong grasp of linear algebra, spatial transforms, numerical optimization and probability.

Responsabilidades

• Design, implement and own geometric map-generation algorithms, including sensor optimization, large scale pose-graph optimization and multi-modal alignment.
• Identify and build a system that will be immune to failure modes. In doing so, be expected to root cause and ship algorithmic fixes with measurable success criteria.
• Improve the runtime and scalability of large-scale distributed map-build pipeline stages.
• Collaborate with neighboring team on defining data contracts and integration requirements
