About the role

  • Senior Software Engineer building C++ and Python behavior-planning systems for AeroVect’s autonomous airport ground-handling vehicles. Developing, testing, and optimizing decision-making software for dynamic airside environments.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement advanced behavior planning algorithms for autonomous vehicles
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure robust integration and functionality of planning systems
  • Design, write, and maintain efficient and scalable code in C++ and Python
  • Contribute to the architecture and continuous improvement of behavior planning software
  • Conduct extensive testing in simulated environments and real-world scenarios to validate and refine behavior planning algorithms
  • Analyze system performance and implement enhancements based on data and feedback
  • Maintain comprehensive documentation of code, algorithms, and system designs
  • Work closely with other engineering teams to ensure seamless coordination and development
  • Own the design and implementation of key behavior-planner modules for autonomous driving in structured, low-speed environments
  • Address multi-agent interaction modeling, rule-based and learned decision-making, and airport-ground-operation edge cases
  • Work at the intersection of mission-level goals and motion-level execution

Requirements

  • Proficient in modern C++ (11/14/17) and object-oriented programming
  • Skilled in Python for rapid prototyping and testing
  • Strong in debugging, profiling, and optimizing code
  • Deep understanding of behavior planning algorithms such as state machines, behavior trees, and probabilistic planning
  • Familiarity with path planning algorithms like A*, RRT, or optimization-based methods
  • Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field
  • Minimum of 3 years of industry experience in autonomous driving, robotics, or a related field
  • Knowledge of machine learning techniques, especially in the context of behavior prediction and planning
  • Experience with ROS / ROS2
  • Experience implementing systems that can re-plan at high frequencies to adapt to dynamic changes in the environment
  • Ability to ensure behavior planning algorithms execute with minimal latency for real-time navigation
  • Proficiency in optimization techniques and probabilistic models for planning decisions under uncertainty
