TEAM
Dynamics and Control is a team that aims to develop safer and more secure vehicle maneuver applications for mass production vehicles. In advanced driving assistance systems such as autonomous driving, the ego-velocity and path planning technology is highly required so that the driving trajectory on public roads should be calculated efficiently and smoothly. Our driving planning engineers have been developing optimized velocity and path planning algorithms so as to emulate a skilled driver based on the surrounding environment and obstacles information acquired from the autonomous sensors and lane information from a high-precision map.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
An expert in developing the optimized ego-velocity, driving planning and decision-making technology for the autonomous driving system or advanced driving assistance system. The specific areas are as follows.
・Longitudinal and lateral vehicle dynamics control such as acceleration, de-acceleration and velocity
・Velocity management based on the acquired data by autonomous sensors and lane information from a high-precision map.
・Virtual development and validation with closed-simulation models.
・Optimal velocity and driving planning algorithms subject to environmental, perceptual capabilities, high-precision map and actuation constraints.
・Cross-functional discussions about vehicle controller and actuator performance, and contribute to motion control design reviews.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Develop the driving planning algorithms how the ego-vehicle acts and reacts in complex and subtle situations
- Collaborate in cross-functional activities to realize a safer and more secure automatic driving system or driving assistance system
- Develop the real-time ADAS application for the embedded system with high efficiency.
- Be familiar with the state-of-the-art vehicle dynamics control and driving planning technology and apply to the feasible application software for real-time platforms
- Evaluate the application functions and performances with data acquired by test vehicles or a vehicle simulator
- Design development tools to promote evaluation efficiency
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
- Enrolled in a bachelor's degree in computer science and/or engineering: software, electrical, mechatronic, robotics, industrial, aerospace or equivalent engineering field, etc.
- Fluent in programming C or C++.
- Experience in developing the real-time application optimized for the embedded system.
- Experience in developing with Linux.
- Ability to understand Japanese used in wide range of situations
- (ex. Japanese is required more than N1 based on JLPT or equivalent level.)
NICE TO HAVES
- More than 3 years of work experience in ADAS driving planning technology or vehicle dynamics control technology (e.g. ACC, AEBS, etc.)
- Experience with agile software management tools.
- Experience with one or more programming languages including but not limited to: Python, OpenCV, JavaScript, MATLAB Simulink, etc.
- Experience in coding based on the following conventions: CERT-C, MISRA-C.
