Job Summary
About Phantom AI
At Phantom AI were on a mission to redefine vehicle safety and autonomy. Our System & Validation Team builds the tools and infrastructure to ensure our products meet the highest reliability performance and safety standards. Were looking for a software engineer who thrives at the intersection of software design machine learning data science and simulation.
What Youll Do
- Simulation: Improve the efficiency reliability and trustworthiness of our simulation framework(HILS and SILS). Our simulations replay real-world sensor and vehicle data into the vision software running on actual boards enabling deterministic validation of behavior and decision-making.
- Data Logging & Telemetry: Design and maintain high-throughput logging services to capture raw sensor data (Camera Radar LiDAR) and vehicle bus data (CAN/Ethernet). Ensure data integrity and time synchronization across distributed systems
- Optimize & Scale: Enhance the performance and scalability of our evaluation frameworks.
- Build Validation Infrastructure: Design develop and maintain tools for data collection data processing simulation evaluation visualization and analysis.
- CrossFunctional Collaboration: Work closely with ML researchers perception engineers and vehicle test engineers to translate requirements into robust vision software.
