We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions
ABOUT THE ROLE
Our Localization, Calibration, and Mapping team delivers high-integrity solutions that let autonomous systems navigate with precision in real-time, safety-critical environments — across consumer automotive, trucking, mining, and construction. As a new team focused on platformization, we offer a rare opportunity to own core work leveraged across the entire organization.
You'll build the self-service platform that turns sensor calibration from an expert-dependent process into production infrastructure: cloud workflow orchestration, automated data-health gates, and tooling every autonomy program can run for itself. You'll get there by living in the current system first — onboarding new vehicle types, so what you build is shaped by real-world data and telemetry. We encourage engineers to take ownership of technical and product decisions and to interact closely with users to collect feedback.
AT APPLIED INTUITION, YOU WILL:
- Own calibration across a growing multi-platform fleet: onboard new vehicle types, root-cause production failures, and convert what you learn into reusable workflows
- Drive cross-team work that raises the reliability of the entire calibration path — partner with build, hardware, and infrastructure teams to trace failures to their source
- Build and operate cloud workflow orchestration for calibration at fleet scale, from data collection through evaluation and deployment
- Design automated data-health gates that catch bad IMU/INS, GNSS/RTK, lidar, and camera data before it reaches the calibration path
- Ship production-quality tooling that…
