Algorithm Engineer

About the Team

This position is part of ZF’s ADAS & HPC business, which is entering an exciting new phase of growth and transformation within the advanced automotive technology space. The business unit is planned for divestiture, creating a unique opportunity to help shape the future of next-generation driver assistance and high-performance computing technologies.

What you can look forward to as an Algorithm Engineer:

• Design and iterate multi-modal fusion algorithms for camera, millimeter-wave radar and etc. Implement core functions including 3D object detection, multi-object tracking, classification, velocity & pose estimation, and environmental semantic modeling.
• Responsible for the overall system architecture design, interface definition and data flow optimization of the perception fusion module. Establish standard pipelines for sensor time synchronization, coordinate unification, cross-sensor object association and fusion confidence evaluation.
• Analyze massive real road test data, identify and resolve core perception issues including false detection, missing detection, object jitter and trajectory drift under challenging scenarios. Complete full-loop algorithm tuning and strategy iteration to improve the stability, accuracy and consistency of 360° full-scene perception for mass-production vehicles.

Your Profile as an Algorithm Engineer:

• Master’s degree or above in electrical engineering, robotics engineering, computer science, automotive, mechanical engineering.
