Senior, Software Engineer - Sensor Calibration

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. 

Meet the Team

The Autonomous Driving Kit Component Enablement & Calibration (ADkit CE&C) team plays a vital role in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of perception systems across our autonomous vehicle platform.

We are currently seeking a Senior Software Engineer who is enthusiastic about thriving in a hands-on environment and ready to grow with the team and leading our way toward productization.

We develop, research and design scalable solutions to calibrate and configure the ADKit components to their peak operational possible state. We work with multi-modal sensors systems including cameras, Lidars, radars and IMU on real vehicles and Hardware-in-the-Loop systems to develop our best-in-class sensors spatial orientation solution. Our contribution directly supports the safety, performance, and robustness of autonomous driving capabilities.

We design adaptability into our software to support the wide range of ADkit sensor configuration needed to keep our truck generation operational on the path to productization. The team engages with diverse stakeholders, spanning from commercial partners to end customers, to reduce calibration-related obstacles associated with adopting autonomous trucking.

Your role will make a significant impact on the future of trucking and autonomous technology as we look to Drive the Future of Freight.

What You’ll Do

As a Senior Software Engineer on AdKit CE&C you would:

• Own the design and architecture of a scalable sensor calibration pipeline while leading requirements analysis and driving decision making by anticipating feasibility challenges and design tradeoffs.
• Lead the development of specialized dedicated libraries allowing verification of sensor intrinsic calibration provided by the manufacturer in a laboratory setting.
• Lead the development of specialized dedicated libraries allowing sensors-to-sensors' extrinsic calibration on vehicle embedded computers.
• Collaborate across a wide spread of functional development teams spanning from sensors leads, device drivers, engine framework, data quality, platform, vehicle commissioning and perception teams to define calibration requirements and processes.
• Collaborate with cross-functional product stakeholders to design and implement scalable on-premises calibration solutions simplifying the user experience and lower barriers to autonomous truck adoption.
• Maintain CI/CD-integrated calibration workflows using Docker, Bazel, and Git to enable reproducible, automated testing and deployment on both hardware
