About the Company
At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners. Now a part of the Daimler family, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.
Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.
Summary
Design, develop, integrate, testandvalidate perceptionsimulationtestingsoftware usingstate-of-the-art recompute testingtechnology to support perception componentdevelopment andtesting of autonomy software for self-driving trucks. You will shape the future ofourdata for autonomous trucking byextensivelycontributing to our perceptionrecomputetestingpipeline.In this role, you willbe responsible for applyingstate of theart approaches forRecompute testingin ascalableproduction setting,contribute todevelopment and release testing, communicate withstakeholdersinperceptiondevelopment,integration,infrastructureand verification testingwhichrely on ourrecomputesimulationpipeline.You will be instrumental in growing the robustness and safety of our self-driving technology.
What you will be doing:
- Advance modern simulation recomputetechniquesforperceptiontesting based on annotated real data andsynthetic rendered data
- Deliver key contributions to design,architectureand implementation of arecompute testingframework that allows to scaleperception testing
- Integrate the framework in a cloud environment and automate the pipeline to allow scaling for the target verification and validation of our autonomous trucks
- Support logdata replayand metrics developmentfor perceptionsoftware components
- Identifytesting gaps and derive requirements for new or improved test tools,perceptionsimulation environments and test frameworks
What you need to succeed:
- BS, MS, or PhDin Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics Engineering, Systems Engineering, or engineering equivalent
- 5+ years of software development experience
- 2+ years of software systems integration and testing experience
- Strong programming experience in C++ and using Python for data analysis
- Working knowledge of ROS2 for autonomous SW development and simulation
- Full life cycle software development including unit and software integration testing and configuration management
