Robotics AI - Calibration, Localization, and Mapping

Samson Rose has been exclusively engaged by a pioneering Robotics & AI company in Southern California to find top-tier engineers for multiple high-impact roles, including Robotics AI Engineers focused on Calibration, Localization, and Mapping. Each role plays a critical part in building autonomous systems that operate effectively in unstructured, real-world environments. Whether your expertise lies in developing production-quality code for SLAM, refining calibration pipelines across sensing modalities, or optimizing LiDAR-based 3D perception, this is a unique opportunity to make a significant impact on next-generation robotics platforms.

A little about them:

They are at the forefront of developing a groundbreaking, field-proven, hardware-agnostic brain technology that empowers a wide range of robots to operate autonomously in the most challenging environments-hazardous, off-road, and industrial settings-all without relying on GPS, maps, or pre-programmed routes.

With over $100 million in funding from visionary leaders and institutions, they have the resources to rapidly turn their bold vision into reality and are making significant strides toward their ambitious goals.

Their mission is to tackle one of the world's most complex challenges: deploying robots in unstructured, previously unknown environments.

By joining their team, you'll have the chance to collaborate with some of the brightest minds in the industry. This world-class team thrives on creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. With a decade of success in the field, they've won DARPA challenge segments and brought together expertise from top-tier organizations like DeepMind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise Self-Driving, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and SpaceX.
