Senior / Staff Software Engineer, Simulation Platform
Waabi- Full Time
- Senior (5 to 8 years)
Candidates must have over 5 years of experience in implementing 3D graphics algorithms using Vulkan and OpenGL, along with 5 years of software development experience in modern C++ and Python. Familiarity with neural rendering techniques like Gaussian Splatting and NeRFs is required, as well as experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow. Strong mathematical skills and a solid understanding of 3D linear algebra and probabilistic techniques are essential. A Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in computer science, mathematics, physics, or a related field is preferred.
The Senior/Staff Software Engineer will research, implement, and optimize state-of-the-art 3D rendering of sensor data, utilizing GenAI/ML to enhance traditional 3D graphics. They will develop realism metrics in collaboration with the V&V team to demonstrate the impact of improved sensor fidelity. The role involves collaborating with Perception, Hardware, and Safety teams to enhance the realism of real-time sensor simulations and high-fidelity synthetic data, as well as improving rendering and tooling for generating realistic data at scale.
Develops autonomous electric ride-hailing vehicles
Zoox focuses on creating a fully integrated autonomous ride-hailing service designed specifically for urban transportation. Unlike other companies that modify existing vehicles for self-driving capabilities, Zoox has engineered its own vehicle from the ground up, optimizing it for safety, efficiency, and passenger comfort. The vehicle features advanced sensors, cameras, and AI systems that allow it to navigate complex city environments. It can carry up to four passengers in a spacious interior, ensuring a pleasant ride experience. Safety is paramount, with rigorous testing and collaboration with regulatory bodies to meet high standards. Additionally, Zoox's vehicles are fully electric, promoting sustainability by reducing emissions. The company also develops a user-friendly ride-hailing platform that uses data analytics to improve routing and reduce wait times. Zoox aims to enhance urban mobility while prioritizing safety and environmental responsibility.
