About The Position
The Controls Team is responsible for the synthesis and execution of dynamic trajectories by the Motional Autonomous Vehicle. This team focuses on the generation of comfortable and safe trajectories for the AV to perform, the design of control systems that interface with vehicle platform actuators, and the communication interfaces that relay trajectory information to low-level control modules. The team pursues these goals through a process of rigorous algorithmic design, validation, analysis in simulation, and comprehensive closed-course and public road evaluation. As the team's responsibilities are growing to support more motion control capabilities and the scaling of Motional's deployment area, we are looking for a Senior Motion Planning and Controls Engineer to help build a robust motion planning and control pipeline. This person will work on enabling cutting-edge capabilities for Motional's AV, including algorithm design and documentation, software development, metrics definition, simulation implementation and evaluation, and in-vehicle testing. As part of this role, the team member will maintain cross-functional relationships across the organization to help understand and communicate the impacts of their work on overall AV performance.
