We welcome motivated candidates who are eager to grow into the role and develop their expertise further. ## Description At ARX Robotics, you will help advance the autonomy stack of next-generation unmanned ground vehicles. As a Staff Engineer - Sensor Fusion & Localization, you will develop core state estimation and sensor fusion systems that enable robots to understand their position and motion in complex, GPS-denied environments. You will work across autonomy, perception, hardware, and software teams to integrate advanced algorithms into a cohesive and reliable platform for real-world deployment. Your contributions will directly influence how autonomous and teleoperated systems operate in demanding field conditions where precision, robustness, and low latency are critical. What You'll Build * Develop advanced sensor fusion and state estimation algorithms for robust localization in GPS-denied environments * Implement and improve methods such as EKF, UKF, particle filters, and nonlinear observers for state estimation and factor graph-based SLAM methods * Fuse and synchronize data from cameras, LiDAR, radar, IMUs, GNSS, magnetometers, and barometers into reliable real-time state estimates * Design low-latency, real-time processing pipelines for autonomous robotic systems * Build and refine localization performance through simulation, controlled testing, and real-world validation under degraded sensing conditions * Collaborate closely with hardware and software teams to ensure accurate calibration, synchronization, and system integration * Prototype, evaluate, and deploy new multi-sensor fusion and estimation approaches * Debug and resolve complex issues across sensor data, calibration, and estimation pipelines * Contribute to resilient GPS-denied navigation capabilities for autonomous ground vehicles ## Related Videos - [How to develop an autonomous car end-to-end: Robotic Drive and the mobility revolution](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/22-how-to-develop-an-autonomous-car-end-to-end-robotic-drive-and-the-mobility-revolution) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
