About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Design and deploy large-scale georeferenced mapping systems for autonomous heavy machinery operating in continuously evolving construction environments.
  • Develop global dynamic mapping pipelines that maintain accurate, up-to-date site representations across evolving terrain, active construction operations, and machine activity.
  • Define performance metrics, validation methodologies, and benchmarking frameworks for map quality, localization accuracy, robustness, and runtime performance.
  • Develop scalable multi-sensor fusion and SLAM algorithms that enable robust mapping, localization, state estimation, and calibration in challenging outdoor environments with degraded or intermittent GNSS.
  • Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary experts to improve the reliability, scalability, and field performance of the overall system.
  • Ensure production-quality implementation, documentation, and timely execution in a fast-paced, deployment-driven environment

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Geomatics, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience developing mapping, SLAM, localization, or state estimation systems for real-world robotic platforms.
  • Strong understanding of coordinate frames, calibration, sensor synchronization, uncertainty modeling, and real-time robotics systems.
  • Experience building multi-sensor mapping pipelines using GNSS, LiDAR, cameras, IMUs, and other sensor data.
  • Strong experience with mapping and SLAM algorithms such as LiDAR-inertial odometry, pose graph optimization, loop closure, scan matching, map alignment, and georeferencing.
  • Experience writing production-quality C++ and/or Python code in a Linux development environment.
  • Experience evaluating mapping and localization performance using clear metrics, datasets, field-testing procedures, and benchmarking frameworks.
