What is a sensor fusion engineer?

A Sensor Fusion Engineer develops algorithms and systems that combine data from multiple sensors (such as cameras, LiDAR, radar, and IMUs) to create a more accurate and reliable representation of the environment. They work in fields like autonomous vehicles, robotics, and aerospace, using techniques such as Kalman filtering, statistical modeling, and machine learning. Their role involves sensor calibration, data processing, and software development to improve perception, localization, and decision-making systems.

What does a sensor fusion engineer do?

As a Sensor Fusion Engineer in the field of autonomous systems, your day will often involve developing algorithms to combine data from different sensors such as cameras, LiDAR, radar, or IMUs. You'll collaborate closely with software, hardware, and testing teams to ensure data integration is robust and optimized for real-time performance. Tasks may include debugging sensor data streams, running simulations, tuning parameters, and conducting tests on actual platforms. Regular team meetings and design reviews help keep projects on track and foster cross-functional problem solving. This dynamic environment requires both independent technical focus and strong teamwork to bring advanced sensor-driven systems to life.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a sensor fusion engineer?

To thrive as a Sensor Fusion Engineer, you need strong expertise in signal processing, sensor technologies, and algorithms development, typically backed by a degree in electrical engineering, computer science, or a related field. Familiarity with programming languages like C++, Python, and MATLAB, as well as experience using simulation tools and frameworks such as ROS or Simulink, are commonly required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate complex concepts effectively are key soft skills for this role. These abilities are critical for integrating and interpreting data from multiple sensors to deliver accurate and reliable system outputs in real-world applications.

Job description

 Req ID 90947 | Gbl Elec HQ - Farmington Hills, United States Capri USA Group, Inc.

Job Description

The Robotics and Innovation team develops ZF's next generation of edge-connected driver assistance and automated driving functions. Work spans low-speed parking systems through Level 3 capabilities on highways and in complex urban environments. The team combines classical estimation and perception methods with modern C++ software engineering to deliver robust, production-oriented solutions. Engineers collaborate closely with internal controls, software, safety, and vehicle-integration groups as well as external suppliers. Entry-level members contribute to real functions while building depth in probabilistic robotics, sensor fusion, and automotive software practices. This position is part of ZF's ADAS & HPC business, which is entering an exciting new phase of growth and transformation within the advanced automotive technology space. The business unit is planned for divestiture, creating a unique opportunity to help shape the future of next-generation driver assistance and high-performance computing technologies.

What you can look forward to as Entry-Level Robotics and Innovation Engineer:

  • Support design and implementation of driver assistance functions from parking assistance to higher-level automated driving features
  • Develop and test modern C++ modules for perception, sensor fusion, estimation, and related algorithms
  • Work in a CI/DevOps environment using Git and established software development workflows
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (controls, software, safety, integration) and suppliers
  • Contribute to prototyping and concept evaluation, including service-based frameworks such as ROS
  • Participate in in-vehicle rapid prototyping of features and intellectual property
  • Gain structured exposure to safety-critical embedded development practices

Your Profile as Entry-Level Robotics and Innovation Engineer:

  • Bachelor of Science (or equivalent) in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Robotics, or a related field; Master's preferred
  • 0-2 years of relevant experience; internships, co-ops, research assistantships, senior design, or substantial academic/personal projects accepted
  • Working proficiency in object-oriented C++ (C++14 or later), shown through coursework, internships, or projects
  • Familiarity with Git and basic software development practices (branching, reviews, CI concepts)
  • Foundational knowledge of probabilistic robotics and related methods (State Space Modeling, Kalman filtering, or Bayesian approaches)
  • Interest in convex optimization, optimal control, or model-predictive control is a plus
  • Strong analytical skills, willingness to learn production automotive software practices, and clear technical communication
  • Team-oriented working style; prior exposure to embedded systems, ROS, or ADAS internships is advantageous
  • Must be based in southeast Michigan

What We Offer:

  • A supportive collaborative team environment
  • Annual Incentive Plan
  • Paid Vacation 
  • Personal Time
  • 401k Plan
  • Health Care Benefits
  • Paid Holidays 
  • A strong diversity culture
