Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Torc Robotics is a leader in autonomous driving technology focused on developing software for automated trucks. They are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to design and implement scalable sensor calibration solutions for their autonomous vehicle platform, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of perception systems.

Responsibilities

• Own the design and architecture for a scalable sensor calibration pipeline in C++, leveraging available libraries (OpenCV, linear algebra libraries) for real-time and offline calibration
• Deep expertise in linear algebra to lead the design and implementation of spatial computational system for multi-modals sensor platforms. Apply advanced mathematical rigor using Lie groups, quaternions, and 3D transformations to ensure accurate spatial calibration
• Lead the development of specialized dedicated libraries allowing sensor-to-sensor extrinsic calibration (lidar-camera, imu-lidar, etc.) using multi-sensor targetless detections during robotics missions
• Experience with camera intrinsic and extrinsic calibration
• Drive the design and maintenance of simulation tools and data pipelines for sensor modeling, calibration validation, and large-scale regression testing
• Collaborate cross-functionally with perception, simulation, and platform teams to define calibration requirements, set best practices, and ensure robustness across hardware configurations and software releases
• Establish and maintain CI/CD-integrated calibration workflows using Docker, Bazel, and Git to enable reproducible, automated testing and deployment
• Lead deep-dive debugging and root-cause analysis of complex sensor alignment issues in vehicle logs and simulation using ROS tools, rviz, and custom visualization utilities
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical reviews, fostering a culture of high-quality software design and code excellence
