Orchard Robotics
Software Engineer (Perception & Localization)
Orchard Robotics, Bellevue, Washington, us, 98009
About Us:Orchard Robotics is a seed-stage startup backed by top VCs like General Catalyst, Contrary, Soma Capital, Humba Ventures, and angel investors like Howard Lerman (founder of Yext).We’re building Robots & AI that enable precision crop management. Our AI-powered camera systems count, size, and measure the growth of every fruit on 1,000,000+ trees in an orchard. Our mission is to help farmers to produce more food for the world, much more efficiently.Farmers are using our technology today in some of the largest orchards in the nation.About the role:
As an early engineer, you'll receive
generous
equity compensationFull-time role at our Bellevue, WA office (close to Seattle)Flexible working hoursComprehensive Health, Vision, and Dental coverage, and we cover 100% of the premiumWe move fast, and sometimes this means staying late or working weekendsOur team is close-knit & highly driven, you’ll work directly with our CEO and entire teamWe’re deeply motivated by the impact we’re making – every line of code written or new system built means one less fruit that goes to waste, and one more person who is fed.What you’ll do:Develop, test, and iterate on perception and localization algorithms for our advanced camera systems that mount onto tractors to analyze millions of fruit in orchardsImplement intelligent sensor data filtering to interpret complex, real-world data (our systems collect TBs of orchard data every day)Fuse sensor data (depth, GPS, IMU, etc) to precisely locate our camera system in an orchard, localize detected fruit and treesOptimize code for fast edge computing performance (Python & C++)Build out comprehensive test suites to evaluate and validate system performance over a range of real-world edge casesBe a generalist, supporting different parts of our software and hardware if neededWhat makes you a good fit:2+ years of relevant robotics software experience in industry or academiaA deep understanding or expertise in
one or more of the following areas : computer vision, stereo depth perception, robot pose estimation and tracking, object detection, multi-object tracking, re-localization of scenes that may change over time, sensor fusion, motion tracking, image processing, optical flow.Strong understanding of core robotics software principles, geometry, localization techniquesHands-on experience developing robotics software from the ground upAbility to learn quickly, and enthusiasm for taking on multiple roles and responsibilities as our company growsBonus Points:Experience deploying & optimizing robotics algorithms to run fast on embedded compute like NVIDIA JetsonFamiliarity with fusing data from GPS, IMU, depth, and other sensorsFamiliar with embedded edge computing (NVIDIA Jetson)
