TEAM
Our team's mission is to realize Woven's vision of "Mobility for All" by developing autonomous vehicles that can operate without human involvement. We specifically focus on Mobility as a Service (MaaS) applications. MaaS offers the advantage of increased vehicle usage time through ridesharing, allowing us to equip vehicles with advanced sensors and computers necessary for achieving reliable driverless operations. We change people's lives with our driverless vehicles. While working towards our mission we aim to build a diverse team of curious and dedicated individuals with different experiences.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for engineers who are passionate about making driverless vehicles come true and are excited to work with us to create a better future for mobility. Our day to day tasks include developing automated driving software, evaluating it with simulation and real vehicles, and making further improvements from real world feedback. Skills in modern software development and solid experiences in developing real time systems are the essential prerequisites to tackle this challenge.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Build robust motion planning capabilities for driverless vehicles in urban environments while working alongside teammates with diverse expertise
With a deep understanding of our software stack, develop tools, algorithms, and evaluation mechanisms to solve real-world motion planning challenges tailored for MaaS applications
Live and breath software development best practices that produce maintainable code including automated testing, continuous integration, code style conformity, and code review
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
BS in computer science, robotics, or a related field
Proficiency in C++ and Python
Understanding of common software performance trade-offs and pitfalls
Understanding of real-time, distributed, and parallel computing
Communication skills with the ability to convey concepts clearly and precisely
NICE TO HAVES
MS/PhD in computer science, robotics, or a related field
Experience in system design including characterization of module functionality and requirements as a component within a complex real-time software system
Experience in machine learning or mathematical optimization for robotics problems such as behavior prediction, decision making, and trajectory planning
Experience evaluating machine learning based systems
Familiarity with agile development methodologies and tools (e.g., JIRA, Confluence)
