Manager, 3D Mapping / SLAM
Job Description:
Our Calibration, Localization, and Mapping (CLAMS) team is responsible for building the algorithms and tools necessary for keeping Zoox vehicles well calibrated, always knowing where they’re located within the world, and aware of their environment. Without precise calibration, localization, and mapping our vehicles would be at a disadvantage when it comes to perceiving and reasoning about the surrounding world, and is therefore foundational in enabling results from many other teams across Zoox. This work is critical for scaling autonomous driving in a safe and reliable way.
High-definition 3D maps are a critical tool for enabling autonomous driving and as a Manager of the 3D Mapping team you will collaborate in building a highly automated, scalable, multi-modality, 3D mapping system. Our Mapping Data Preprocessing team is at the forefront of the entire mapping process. Your team will be responsible for ensuring that raw data is sufficient, for estimating initial pose estimates, and for creating and caching some of the fundamental data products needed for creating and maintaining maps.
