Systems Engineer, LiDAR Characterization

What you'll do • Set up and run tests on LiDAR sensors in the lab and on vehicles for comprehensive characterization

• Develop automation software to accelerate lab testing and data collection

• Support field data collection across real-world scenarios, including preparing sensors and test setups and logging test conditions.

• Investigate system-level issues: reproduce the problem, collect diagnostic data, and work with the relevant engineering teams to find the root cause.

• Help develop, run, and verify sensor calibration procedures.

• Analyze sensor data with Python or MATLAB, and document and present results to the Systems team and cross-functional partners.

What you'll have • An MS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Optics/Photonics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with 0–2 years of industry experience.

• Hands-on lab experience with sensors, optical systems, or electronic test equipment from research, internships, or industry.

• Proficiency in Python or MATLAB for data analysis, and a foundation in signal processing, optics, or measurement statistics.

• A methodical approach to debugging problems that span hardware, firmware, and software, and clear written and verbal communication.

• Experience with LiDAR, radar, or other perception sensors, FMCW or coherent detection, or sensor calibration is a plus.

What's in it for you • Spend most of your time hands-on with a cutting-edge 4D LiDAR sensor and learn the full system end to end.

• Work alongside and be mentored by experienced systems, optics, and signal processing engineers.

• Be part of a fast-paced and dynamic team.
