AeroVect · Remote; New York City - Hybrid; Toronto - Remote; San Francisco; Atlanta - Hybrid
Extracted from the posting
Develops and optimizes radar-based perception pipelines (preprocessing, detection, clustering, tracking) and trains, deploys and monitors radar object detection models for ground handling. Fuses radar with camera and/or LiDAR and architects a deterministic secondary perception system with radar as primary modality. Stack includes Python, C++ and ROS2, with CUDA kernels preferred.
