Company mission

To ensure the future of autonomy is both safe and accessible to all.

Role

Who you are

  • 3+ years of experience in developing ML and deep neural network systems, including model design, experiment setup, model test and evaluation
  • Proficiency in modern Python and C++
  • Expertise on applying machine learning to perception problems such as segmentation, object detection and tracking
  • Deep understanding of challenges in machine learning pipeline design such as data collection and processing, model test and evaluation
  • Proficient in Pytorch
  • Familiarity with professional software development tools, such as source control (git), unit testing, and profiling
  • Strong communication skills and proven ability to collaborate effectively across functions

Desirable

  • Good understanding of signal processing concepts such as FFT
  • Experience with processing point cloud data from lidar or radar

What the job involves

  • In this role, you will be a member of the machine learning team, bridging our two technologies together. Our ML team is located in Berkeley, CA. You will be the first ML hire in our Paris office with the big potential for growth. This role is perfect for an ML engineer who enjoys working on all levels of the ML and perception pipeline design including model design, data collection and preprocessing, model test and evaluation
  • You will work closely with our signal processing team in Paris to understand DAR technology and adopt our semantic spectrum technology to the DAR system. You will also work closely with our product team and external partners to bring our solution to market

Our take

Radar technology presents a promising solution for autonomous vehicles and robots to see the obstacles around them. Yet, existing sensors are too low-resolution and struggle under challenging conditions. Solutions are beginning to arise for self-driving cars, but tackling challenges for fully autonomous robotics is significantly more difficult.

Zendar develops software-driven radar technology that augments the capability of radar sensors, leveraging AI to boost signal analysis to a higher resolution. Whilst its initial focus provides solutions for its automobile partnership with Hyundai, it is also developing hardware and software setups for automated agricultural machinery, robotics and trucking.

One of Zendar's biggest challenges will be the competition it faces from similar high-resolution startups. Despite this, the company stands out due to its semi-supervised machine-learning approach to radar, a technique that has worked excellently for aerial surveillance and has yet to be implemented into street-level hardware.
