Software Engineering Intern, Autonomous Vehicle Calibration

NVIDIA’s Autonomous Vehicles Team is searching for outstanding software talent to work on sensor calibration. This is a chance to create, implement, optimize, test, productize, and ship algorithms for autonomous vehicles. The successful candidate will work with the most sophisticated parallel computing technology, will ensure the best possible performance and developer experience, as well as contribute to trends and features for next-generation architectures.

As part of the DriveWorks team, you will work closely with a diverse set of engineers from cloud computing, embedded systems, simulation, computer graphics, and computer vision as well as customers using NVIDIA AV solutions. Accordingly, strong communication skills and desire to learn related technologies are helpful. The candidate should exhibit strong engineering sense and be methodical and detailed in their work.

What you'll be doing:

• Work on algorithms and tooling supporting calibration of a large vehicle fleet

• perform data analysis from the operating fleet to understand calibration failure modes and come up with improvements

• develop tools to catch potential calibration issues/regressions

• improve stability and help productize calibration implementation

What we need to see:

• Pursuing BS/MS or higher in computer science, robotics, or a related engineering field.

• Strong mathematical fundamentals, including linear algebra and numerical methods.

• Experience with algorithms in Robotics, Computer Vision and/or Machine Learning.
