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.
