TL;DR · Computer Vision Engineer

As a Senior Computer Vision Engineer joining Anduril’s autonomous systems team in Costa Mesa, CA, you will develop advanced perception systems for complex aerial platforms, focusing on real-time decision-making algorithms that enable robust navigation and mission execution. Your daily tasks include implementing SLAM and structure from motion techniques to create accurate 3D models, integrating these with path planning algorithms, and collaborating closely with robotics, software, and hardware teams to ensure seamless system integration. You will also work with vendors and government stakeholders to advance perception technologies for autonomous aerial systems. This role requires expertise in C++ or Rust, proficiency in numpy, OpenCV, PyTorch, and GPU/CUDA programming, as well as a background in 3D computer vision concepts and real-world sensor integrations like LiDAR and stereo cameras.

What you'll do

  • Develop robust 3D perception and computer vision algorithms for real-time decision-making in autonomous aerial systems.
  • Implement advanced SLAM algorithms to create accurate 3D models from multiple camera inputs in real-time.
  • Integrate perception outputs with path planning algorithms for autonomous navigation in complex environments.
  • Design experiments and curate datasets to develop insights for internal use and customer applications.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate perception algorithms into autonomous aerial systems.
  • Work with vendors and stakeholders to advance state-of-the-art perception technologies for autonomous platforms.

What we're looking for

  • 4+ years of professional experience in computer vision and robotics.
  • Strong knowledge of 3D computer vision concepts, including multi-view geometry and SLAM algorithms.
  • Experience with real-world sensor integrations for aerial robotics or dynamic platforms.
  • Fluency in standard domain libraries (numpy, opencv, pytorch) and proficiency in C++ or Rust.
  • Knowledge of path planning algorithms integrated with perception systems in complex environments.
  • MS or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
