Sensor Fusion Design Engineer

​Why look for a job when you can look for a purpose?​Why look for a job when you can look for a purpose?

A job with purpose is more than just a job. After all, your next move determines your everyday life. So what about creating positive change? What about impacting your future and that of millions of others in ways you may never have imagined? Curious? We hope so.

Who We Are
At our department of Autonomous Drive and Active Safety Functions we design, integrate, and verify the complete vehicle solution for autonomous cars and active safety functions. We collaborate with some of the most innovative industry partners to reach our future visions of safety, convenience, and mobility.

Autonomous drive has the potential to fundamentally change how cars are used and are part of our society. As a Team Leader you will contribute to the team’s purpose to take the lead in safe, customer valued and purposeful functions for Advanced Driver Assistance systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD). The responsibility,communal with the team,is todevelop and launch robust andsafe,world-class functionality.
What You'll Do
We are looking for a team member for our team of talented perception engineers.

The team works with partners and other stakeholders to define and refine the technical strategy for perception solutions for the future and by that ensuring alignment with broader company goals and customer needs. This requires knowledge about different sensor technologies, such as radar, camera and lidar, and about different sensor fusion approaches, such as neural networks and Kalman finlters.

The team is responsible for driving and balancing the AD/ADAS sensor needs towards the specific sensor teams, such as LIDAR, radar and Ultra Sonic sensor teams. This means you need an understanding of how the different AD/ADAS functions work, and what their needs are, and you make a system design that scales over time. In this process you collaborate closely with other teams at VCC and at partner companies, and you have fun every day!

One cornerstone in the team is to work with analysis of sensor data from customer cars to statistically evaluate different aspects of the performance of the sensor fusion. Another cornerstone is to define and promote an interface that provides sensor data to other non-AD/ADAS functions in the vehicle, which means you will have to cooperate with many different teams and understand their needs versus the limitations in the sensor data on a deep technical level.

You are a self-driven team player with high ambitions. You are a good communicator. As a person, you are curious and innovative. You care about people around you and you get things done.
Who You Are
We believe that you have several years of experience in the automotive industry and have worked with sensor fusion-related problems, either as a sensor fusion data user or developer, preferably within the context of AD/ADAS. You possess knowledge of data analysis methodologies and have experience in requirement development, including the decomposition of requirements at various levels of abstraction. Additionally, you are familiar with applying ISO26262, SOTIF, and FMEA methods. You hold an MSc degree in Systems, Control and Mechatronics, Data Science, Computer Engineering, Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or have equivalent experience. You are fluent in English, both spoken and written.

As for who you are, you are a fast learner, self-driven, and proactive, with a strong team-oriented mindset and high ambitions. You communicate well, are curious and innovative, and always eager to learn and understand your environment. You care about people and enjoy interacting and working together. You take initiative and feel a sense of responsibility in ensuring tasks are completed. Even in areas where you have limited experience, you are always willing to lend a hand. You actively participate in meetings, bringing enthusiasm, and you are proud to share and support others with your knowledge.Who We Are
