Perception Engineer, 3D Representation & Navigation
FieldAI, Irvine, CA
The role
We're looking for a Perception Engineer to help build the 3D scene and traversability representations our robots rely on to navigate real-world environments. You'll design learning-based approaches to spatial understanding from point cloud–based representations to learned traversability mapping and take them from research prototype to production on physical robots. This role sits at the intersection of perception, mapping, and autonomy, working closely with cross-functional teams to make sure our systems perform reliably in the field, not just in simulation.
What you need
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
- 3+ years of experience in verification, validation, systems test, or perception evaluation for robotics, autonomous systems, automotive, or similar domains.
