Your Role

• Responsible for the development of one or more of the software components within our Mapless Autonomy Platform. 
• Develop deep learning perception models for onboard inference on edge compute devices, e.g. for object detection, segmentation and lane detection with Python. 
• Design and maintain data pipelines to ingest and process terabytes of incoming sensor data with Python. 
• Identify software requirements in close contact with technical experts and customer needs to design appropriate algorithms and solutions. 
• Implement high-quality embedded software for real-time deployment on real vehicles in C++. 
• Ensure the fulfilment of performance, safety and quality requirements with software and simulation testing as well as real-world deployment on our development vehicle. 
• Support our customers and solution engineers for deployment our software on their vehicles – including on-site/on-vehicle testing and application engineering.

Your Background

• Several years of professional experience and a strong technical foundation in deep learning or MLOps. 
• Degree in computer science, robotics, engineering or related (Bachelor, Master, or PhD). 
• Experience with driver assistance systems and / or autonomous driving. 
• Experience with modern software engineering tools, including version control, continuous integration and testing as well as cloud-based development. 
• Willingness to deep-dive into new challenges and make our product a true next-generation software platform for automotive applications. 
• Strong team-player and the ability to communicate complex technology in a clear and straight-forward way to match customer and project expectations. 
• Experience with modern C++ and embedded software engineering for real-time applications is a plus. 
• Experience with modern frameworks for data analysis, data selection, model tracking is a plus.

About Us

driveblocks develops off-road ground autonomy that works under harsh and challenging conditions. We build systems designed for operation in 3D terrain, vegetation, and heavy dust and dirt, where 100% reliability is core to success, even in GNSS-denied environments.

Working with multiple OEM partners across agriculture, construction, and defense, our focus is to deliver value to vehicle operators and solve the toughest challenges when deploying Physical AI in real world applications. Every deployment helps us to gather the operational data required to build the next generation of reliable and safe autonomous driving systems. 

From our office in Munich, we operate as a focused, highly ambitious team with deep expertise in autonomy, Physical AI, and embedded software engineering. We move quickly and set high standards. If you want to build autonomy that is deployed, tested, and operated in the field - we’d love to hear from you!
