About this Job

Your Role

  • Work in close collaboration with the Data & AI team on the full development cycle of one or more software components within a cutting-edge autonomous driving stack.
  • Depending on your interests and the team’s priorities, your focus may include:
    • Improvement of the workflows in the entire data pipeline from the ingestion of the vehicle data into the cloud to the deploying new models.
    • Data curation and quality assurance for our machine learning algorithms.
    • Design and implement improvements for the deep learning network for perception tasks, e.g. object detection 2D/3D, panoptic-segmentation.
    • Organization and execution of in-field testing with our vehicle.
    • Support with automated testing and cloud workflows.
  • Your work directly contributes to safely operating heavy machinery in real-world environments.

Your Background

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, informatics, engineering or related fields.
  • Practical experience in software development, e.g. through past work experiences, intenships,  Formula Student, etc..
  • Ideally experience with Linux, Python and a major computer vision / machine learning framework (e.g. OpenCV, PCL, PyTorch, TensorFlow, …)
  • Ideally experience with git, ROS2, containerized development processes, CI/CD frameworks 
  • Experience in C++ is a plus.
  • 15+ hours availability.

About Us

driveblocks develops off-road ground autonomy that works under harsh and challenging conditions. We build systems designed for operation in 3D terrain, vegetation, and heavy dust and dirt, where 100% reliability is core to success, even in GNSS-denied environments.

Working with multiple OEM partners across agriculture, construction, and defense, our focus is to deliver value to vehicle operators and solve the toughest challenges when deploying Physical AI in real world applications. Every deployment helps us to gather the operational data required to build the next generation of reliable and safe autonomous driving systems. 

From our office in Munich, we operate as a focused, highly ambitious team with deep expertise in autonomy, Physical AI, and embedded software engineering. We move quickly and set high standards. If you want to build autonomy that is deployed, tested, and operated in the field - we’d love to hear from you!

About the Company

driveblocks GmbH

Privately Held
Transportation & Autonomous VehiclesAerospace & DefenseConstruction & Agriculture

driveblocks GmbH is a Munich-based software company developing autonomy and driver-assistance software for off-road vehicles in agriculture, construction, and defense. Off-road operation imposes constraints that differ fundamentally from on-road driving. Vehicles operate in unstructured 3D-terrain with slopes, vegetation, dust, and fluctuating visibility. There are no pre-defined lanes, no reliable HD maps, and single sensor systems reach their limits. driveblocks develops software specifically for these harsh off-road conditions. It fuses lidar and camera data using pre-trained machine-learning models combined with explicit algorithms to assess terrain geometry, detect obstacles and people, evaluate drivability, and generate local avoidance behaviour. This software and physical AI stack - focused on real-time perception and sensor fusion for harsh environments - is delivered through driveblocks' modular platform, configurable to a wide range of sensor set-ups. The software runs efficiently on existing and new autonomy stacks. driveblocks’ founding team has long experience in research of safety critical autonomy, making its software certifiable according to European standards. driveblocks and its OEM customers already operate several vehicles in prototype environments across various verticals. The team works closely on advancing off-road autonomy with leading companies like DAF, BOMAG, Infineon, STW, and Apex.AI.
