Tesla
Computer Vision Software Engineer, Geometric Vision, Self-Driving
Tesla, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
Join our Self-Driving team to help shape one of the most advanced and widely-deployed computer vision systems in the world. As a key contributor, you will drive innovation in geometric vision, tackling challenges related to both the vehicle dynamics and environmental perception.
Responsibilities
Develop and refine models for estimating geometric entities using both modern neural network-based and classical vision techniquesLeverage vast amounts of fleet data for algorithm development and validationDevelop and deploy onboard computer vision systems that operate reliably across millions of Tesla vehicles worldwideCreate and improve robust sensor calibration systems that perform consistently in complex and unpredictable environmentsCollaborate closely with a high-caliber team dedicated to realizing full autonomyRequirements
Proven ability to rapidly prototype and optimize algorithmsProficiency in writing production-quality code in modern C++Proficiency in Python is highly desirableSolid understanding of linear algebra, geometry, probabilistic theory, numerical optimization, and deep learning, with hands-on implementation experienceExpertise in key areas of computer vision and robotics, such as structure-from-motion, Visual-Inertial SLAM, large-scale mapping and localization, dense 3D modeling, or neural rendering (e.g., NeRF, Gaussian Splatting).Familiarity with GPU programming is an advantageCompensation and BenefitsBenefits
