Software Engineer - Motion Planning

Location:

Onsite in Foster City, CA | at least 3 days in office

Introduction

Join the Motion Planning team where you’ll be dedicated to improving the driving behaviors of the robot on public roads. The Planner's job is to figure out where the robot is going and how to get there safely in complex situations such as Downtown San Francisco or the Las Vegas Strip.

This is a cutting-edge problem that requires teamwork and collaboration across a broad set of experts including Planner, Perception, Prediction, and Operations. Together, you will create the next generation of algorithmic improvements to expand our robot’s ability to drive in some of the most complex situations found on public roads.

Safety is foundational, so you will take a measured approach – develop a principled modification to the Planner, test in simulation and on closed courses, and team up with our safety drivers for on-road testing.
