However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. About the role As an AcuityOS engineer, you'll develop, deploy, and maintain the backbone of all-domain autonomy capabilities, from inter-agent communications to hardware and simulation interfaces. Integration with new vehicles and hardware is a critical function. This position requires both field and office-based work, with significant time spent deploying and testing software on autonomous vehicles in real-world environments. At Applied Intuition, you will: * Systems Engineering: Develop, deploy, and validate software systems on autonomous vehicles, focusing on robotics, sensors, and vehicle autopilots * Field Deployment & Testing: Participate in hands-on fieldwork, deploying software on vehicles and ensuring proper functionality in dynamic, real-world environments * Interfacing with Sensors and Autopilots: Work directly with sensors (e.g., RADAR, cameras, GPS, SONAR) and vehicle autopilot systems, integrating them into the autonomous vehicle framework * Perception & Autonomous Modules: Work with the Perception and Autonomy teams to deploy and optimize perception pipelines (Vision, Radar, Fusion) and vehicle autonomy SW, ensuring robust and safe vehicle operation * Communication Systems: Address inter-vehicle communication, ensuring seamless data exchange between vehicles for collaborative autonomous operations * Third-Party Software Integration: Interface with and integrate third-party software and APIs into our systems * Software Quality & CI/CD: Work on software integration, Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) processes, and implement system-related improvements to enhance system performance and reliability * Simulation & Testing: Leverage simulation environments to test vehicle systems, validating software behavior in various scenarios before field deployment * Collaboration & Documentation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including software engineers, data scientists, and field operators, to ensure the successful deployment of systems. Document processes and provide updates on system status and improvements
