Perception Engineer (III - V)

About Us

At Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI) , we are a global leader in vehicle automation solutions. Our technology enables safe, efficient, and scalable automation for industries such as solar, agriculture, construction, landscaping, and more. With a commitment to innovation and excellence, ASI continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in autonomous technology. Our Mission is to help you reach your potential through innovative robotic solutions. We pride ourselves in our core values : Safe, Simple, Transparent, Growth, Humble, and Attention to Detail.

About the Role

We are hiring Perception Engineers across multiple levels (I-V) to join our autonomy team. Perception Engineers at ASI are responsible for designing, implementing, and deploying real-time perception systems that help unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) interpret their surroundings and make intelligent decisions. The role includes sensor evaluation, sensor fusion, tracking, object detection, and deploying code to production systems.

This position requires proficiency in C++11 or newer, strong sensor data processing skills (especially LiDAR), and the ability to develop robust, real-time algorithms. Perception Engineers collaborate with teams across ASI, including Embedded Software, Planning, Controls, and Systems Engineering, and work on platforms that operate in diverse and challenging environments. While the role currently includes 50% field deployment work, our goal is to shift toward 90% development. This is a hybrid position that requires three days (Tuesday through Thursday) on-site.

Job Duties

• Develop and deploy real-time perception algorithms using LiDAR, radar, cameras, and ultrasonic sensors.
• Design and implement classical perception systems including sensor fusion, object tracking, and feature extraction.
• Contribute to machine learning-based perception pipelines as appropriate to project needs.
• Write clean, efficient C++ code optimized for embedded Linux environments.
• Integrate perception software with existing robotic platforms using ROS2 or custom middleware.
• Support field deployment and troubleshooting of perception systems (currently ~50% field work).
• Collaborate with architecture, planning, and control teams to ensure consistent interface design.
• Participate in simulation, HIL testing, and field validation to ensure system robustness.
• Analyze system performance and improve perception robustness in GPS-denied and adverse conditions.
• Work with the architecture team to provide feedback on module standards and interfaces.
