## Description

As a Senior Robotics & Machine Learning Engineer, you will shape the next generation of autonomous ground systems. You will design and implement core components of our end-to-end autonomy stack - from perception and prediction to path planning and vehicle control. Your work enables reliable operation of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) in challenging environments, including GNSS-denied areas, off-road terrain, and multi-vehicle convoying.

You will collaborate closely with experts across software, hardware, and mission systems to integrate the right sensors, algorithms, and architectures into robust field-ready platforms. Your contributions directly support Quantum-Systems' mission to set the benchmark for multi-domain autonomous systems.

What is your Day to Day Mission:

 * Develop perception modules (object detection, tracking, pose estimation) for precise autonomous vehicle behavior.
 * Build and integrate the full autonomy stack: perception, prediction, planning, and control for diverse ground platforms.
 * Design multi-sensor fusion setups (camera, LiDAR, radar) for resilient operation in all environments.
 * Implement high-performance software pipelines for real-time sensor processing.
 * Validate autonomy functions using real-world data and advanced simulation.
 * Collaborate with mission-control teams (e.g., MOSAIC) and vehicle platform teams to ensure seamless integration., * Work-life Balance: We offer flexible work schedules, and 30 days of paid vacation each year to support your personal and professional life.

 * Lunch Benefit: We promote healthy eating and the well-being of our employees with a monthly lunch budget.

 * Health & Wellness: We support your physical well-being with a company-subsidized eGym Wellpass membership, giving you access to thousands of gyms and sports facilities.
