Senior Software Engineer, Perception (Radar) at AeroVect

We are AeroVect, a Series A company backed by leading investors in the aviation and autonomous driving sectors. We are currently revolutionizing ground handling for major airlines and service providers worldwide by integrating cutting-edge autonomy into their daily operations.

Responsibilities

• Design and refine radar-based perception pipelines, covering everything from preprocessing and clustering to detection and tracking.
• Manage the full lifecycle of radar object detection models, including training, deployment, and ongoing monitoring within ground handling environments.
• Integrate radar data with LiDAR or camera inputs to create highly robust multi-modal perception systems.
• Develop and oversee the infrastructure for radar data collection, labeling, and performance evaluation.
• Lead the architecture of a deterministic secondary perception system that utilizes radar as the primary modality.
• Provide mentorship to junior team members regarding industry best practices for radar perception.

Must-haves

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• At least 3 years of professional experience specifically in radar perception, including signal processing, tracking, and clustering.
• A strong grasp of radar fundamentals, such as beamforming, CFAR detection, range-Doppler processing, and multipath or ghost mitigation.
• Practical experience working with industrial or automotive radar sensors from manufacturers like TI, Continental, or Oculii.
• Proficiency in C++, Python, and ROS2.

Nice-to-haves

• A PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a similar discipline.
• Proven experience successfully deploying radar models into production environments.
• Technical expertise in developing custom CUDA kernels.
• Background in fusing radar data with camera or LiDAR sensors within a production-grade stack.
• Familiarity with specialized radar datasets like RadarScenes, RADIal, or CARRADA.

Benefits

• Full-time, remote position available to candidates located anywhere.
