Robotics Software Engineer

Mine Vision Systems (MVS) is dedicated to providing advanced workflow-integrated perception and automation systems which improve speed, safety and productivity for the mining industry. We are a spinout from Carnegie Mellon University’s National Robotics Engineering Center, and are located in Pittsburgh’s East Liberty neighborhood. Following the successful product launch of our FaceCapture™ Mapping System, we are in a growth mode and we are seeking a Robotics Software Engineer to join our team.

As a Robotics Software Engineer you will be responsible for designing, implementing, simulating, testing, and iteratively refining software systems and algorithms for integrated robotic systems used in mining applications. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Design and implementation of perception, localization, navigation and planning algorithms to performantly solve challenging real-world problems in both surface mining operations where high-precision positioning data is available, and GPS denied environments where it is not
• Produce robust algorithms and software suitable for commercial applications and products
• Rigorously test and validate solutions under a wide range of real-world conditions and customer processes
• Travel up to 5% to work sites beyond the corporate office to support clients and conduct field trials in underground environments

SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS:

• Proficiency in Modern C++ (STL, Boost)
• Proficiency with CUDA and GPU programming
• Proficiency with ROS or other robotics middleware
• Proficiency with common approaches for robotic perception and object detection
• Proficiency with algorithms and techniques such as iterative closest point (ICP), visual odometry, Kalman filters/Bayesian estimation, search-based planning
• Ability to work with a variety of sensor data: LIDAR, stereo vision, high-precision GPS, inertial measurement units (IMUs). Familiarity with multimodal sensor fusion is strongly preferred.
• Proficiency working in and developing software for Linux
• Knowledge of scientific computing libraries preferred
• Proficiency in Python preferred
• Knowledge of professional software engineering practices for full software development life cycle including task breakdown, scheduling, unit testing, code reviews, documentation, and version control
• High initiative, seeking continuous improvement, actively engaged in problem solving
• Excellent analysis, prioritization, decision-making, and implementation skills with a high level of personal responsibility
• Excellent oral and written communications. Excellent interpersonal skills, adept at building relationships with individuals and groups of people with a very wide diversity of demographic and cultural characteristics

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics or related field required; Master’s degree preferred
• 3+ years of experience working with field robotic systems, sensors, or similar experience
• Demonstrated related experience may be substituted for preferred education.

BENEFITS WE OFFER:

• Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k) with match
• Unlimited PTO policy and flexible hybrid work model
• Small team that allows for immediate impact and showcasing of your talents
• Opportunity for hands-on work with cutting edge technology
