Research Engineer I (Robust Perception in Rainy Weathers)

A Research Engineer to support the research for developing perception algorithms based on 4D radar. A Research Engineer position is available in the area of sensors perception and platform design in a project that involves simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms and deep learning object detection.

The successful candidate will work with Prof. Danwei Wang and a group of Research Fellows, Research Associates, and Ph.D./Masters/Bachelors students in the school of EEE at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform research, development, implementation, and experimentation of the perception algorithms based on 4D radar

• Solve problems of robust perception in rainy weathers and expand the usage of the technologies to other weather conditions such as fog and smoke

• Utilize expertise in deep learning, simultaneous localization and mapping to contribute to research activities

• Responsible for algorithms design and implementation

• Conduct place recognition based on 3D and 4D radar fusion

• Develop 4D radar SLAM algorithm

• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to integrate radar-based perception into larger systems

• Other engineering support on hardware and software

Job Requirements:

• A Bachelor/Master degree in automatic control, robotics, electrical engineering, etc

• Strong skills in C++, Python, Linux, and experience with ROS, and code management tools (git)

• Experience with algorithms based on different sensors (4D radar, 3D LiDAR, rgb cameras, thermal cameras, etc)

• Familiar with deep learning frameworks (such as Pytorch)

• Experience with deep learning based object detection

• Experience with SLAM and multi-sensor fusion algorithms

• Experience with place recognition based on sensors fusion

Preference will be given to applicants with the following additional skills:

• Has experience in multi-sensor perception and SLAM algorithms.

• Has experience in Lidar, cameras, radar, etc.

• Has experience in projects related to autonomous systems or robotics.
