TL;DR

As a Senior Integration Engineer for Autonomous Vehicles at NVIDIA, you will join a dynamic team building end-to-end self-driving solutions. Your role involves defining functional software architecture for L2/L3/L4 autonomous driving systems, integrating modular components like perception and planning to meet customer requirements, and optimizing performance on multi-computer and heterogeneous hardware architectures. You will diagnose issues in real-world and simulation environments, develop efficient mechanisms for resource utilization, conduct in-vehicle tests, and create comprehensive system documentation. Key skills include expertise in C++ and CUDA programming, experience with Linux, QNX, and version control systems like Git, as well as knowledge of image processing APIs and automotive systems. This role demands a solid understanding of parallel, embedded, and distributed architectures, along with the ability to write highly performant code and work collaboratively within a cross-disciplinary team.
