Job Description

NVIDIA Software Engineer Position

Want to join a fun, creative company that is on the cutting edge of amazing technologies? NVIDIA is developing groundbreaking solutions in some of the world's most exciting technology areas including Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning and Autonomous Vehicles. We are looking for software engineers to join our Behavior Planning team to redefine the way we drive. As part of this team you will build our behavioral and motion planning algorithms for various design domains, which spans challenges from achieving a comfortable driving experience, occlusion handling, driver-in-the-loop situations, all the way to the long tail of traffic rules that need to be handled fully autonomously. You will have the opportunity to deploy your algorithms and truly have the first-hand experience of your work driving the cars of the future.

What you will be doing:

• Design and implement robust, safety-critical algorithms for behavior and motion planning on highways and urban roads.
• Address fundamental problems in redundant actuation, degraded operation, and fail-safe control to ensure system integrity.
• Architect and develop new behavior planning features from concept to deployment, driven by product requirements.
• Rigorously test and validate functionalities in sophisticated simulation environments and real-world road scenarios.
• Build an autonomous system with a coordinated safety concept that performs reliably across varied geographical regions, sensor configurations, map availability, and environmental conditions.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including perception, mapping, vehicle control, and user experience.

What we need to see:

• BS or higher in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 8+ years of proven experience in robotics or a comparable domain.
• Proven applied robotics experience.
• Strong proficiency in C/C++.
• Familiarity with Python.
• Comfortable developing within Linux or Unix-based systems.
• Outstanding analytical and skills for compute-constrained systems.
• Ability to optimally multitask and prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
• Excellent communication skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• 2+ years of experience in AV software development and deploying production-ready code.
• A PhD in a relevant field or related research experience.
• Expert-level understanding of planning algorithms and/or a strong controls background.
• Knowledge of CUDA.

The base salary range is 184,000 USD - 356,500 USD. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
