Staff Autonomy Engineer, MHE Vision

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Pennsylvania.

📋 Description

• Take ownership of the autonomy software stack for Gather products, encompassing perception, localization, and inventory scanning pipelines that operate on vehicle-mounted embedded computing.

• Contribute to the architectural development of the product autonomy stack as it evolves to accommodate more vehicle types, facility layouts, and customer configurations.

• Document current systems comprehensively.

• Strategize future revisions.

• Lead and contribute to design enhancements and testing processes.

• Address challenges across the autonomy stack.

• Design and implement algorithms that accurately detect, identify, and log inventory locations as forklifts and drones navigate through warehouse aisles under varying lighting conditions, occlusion, and movement.

• Enhance scan accuracy and coverage through algorithmic advancements, improved sensor integration, and closer coordination with machine learning perception models.

• Develop and maintain the software systems responsible for scan triggering, location mapping, and data transfer to the cloud platform.

• Work collaboratively with hardware and field teams to identify and resolve issues in deployed systems, leveraging log data and field observations to drive enhancements.

⛳️ Requirements
