Join NVIDIA's Solution Engineering team that is changing the future of driving. Our goal is to build and deploy scalable solutions for autonomous vehicles and as a result, create safer and more efficient roads. Our team is hands-on, passionate about practical results, and values diversity. You will help craft the application software architecture by working closely with external partners developing on our platform and the collaborations across multiple teams within NVIDIA working on autonomous vehicles. You will also advance and refine the overall drivability of our solution, focusing on integration challenges and using your deep analytical skills to tease through the complexity of the system to find effective solutions.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers, and is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer. If you are passionate in bringing autonomous vehicles into the world and see the solution come together, we would like to hear from you!

What you'll be doing:

  • Shape the application architecture internally, with a focus on sensor fusion, by collaborating closely with architecture and software development teams.

  • Integrate hardware and software components efficiently and build scalable software solutions for our partners. Conduct profiling, benchmarking and evaluation activities for verification.

  • Lead bring-up activities and provide technical support to resolve functional and sensor fusion related issues.

  • Customize, reconfigure and rebuild processing pipelines in the software stack.

  • Perform in-vehicle and simulation test drives and deep analysis on the recorded data

  • Collaborate with our global engineering teams in our US, APAC, and Europe locations to deploy the solution to our customers.

What we need to see:

  • Bachelors or Masters in computer science, robotics, computer engineering, or equivalent experience.

  • 5+ years of work-related experience in software development related to deep learning and/or autonomous driving technologies.

  • Demonstrated ability in the development of robust and efficient solutions for perception, object detection/tracking, multi-sensor fusion, and time synchronization.

  • Strong understanding on sensor processing pipelines and their lifecycle.

  • Prior experience in application development and familiarity with robotics related middleware frameworks.

  • Excellent C/C++ development skills with good knowledge of Python and scripting languages.

  • Knowledgeable with various OS environments such as Linux, Android, or Real-time operating systems.

  • Ease of adapting to new technologies and platforms.

  • Ability to adapt to fast paced development lifecycles and multi-functional organizations.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience with automotive design processes and norms (e.g. ISO 26262, ASPICE), including in-vehicle testing, simulation and metrics development of autonomous driving systems.

  • Proven expertise in developing perception solutions and experience on diverse sensor modalities such as cameras, ultrasonics, and radar.

  • Understanding of NVIDIA DRIVE platform or NVIDIA GPU hardware, and/or familiarity with CUDA

  • Contributions to or ownership of open-source project and mentorship experience.

  • Strong analytical skills, seek innovative solutions, with good attention to details.
