Perception Engineer

Brahma Consulting Group

Perception Engineer

We are looking for a Perception Engineer with 2-10 years of experience to build autonomous construction vehicles. This role is for someone who is deeply passionate about robotics and building, and is excited to work on a mission to fix humanity's heartbeat: construction. We need someone who thrives at the intersection of hardware, autonomy, and real-world chaos, and is eager to see their code move 20 tons of steel.

What will you be doing?

  • Architect and build robust 3D perception pipelines for teleoperated and semi-autonomous heavy machinery.
  • Develop solid baseline algorithms and evolve them into advanced deep-learning models as necessary.
  • Build real-time object detection, classification, and tracking systems to enhance operator situational awareness.
  • Calibrate and fuse data across multiple modalities, ensuring spatial and temporal consistency under real-world conditions.
  • Optimize algorithms for real-time execution on embedded compute platforms, ensuring low latency, stability, and resilience to edge cases.
