Autonomous Driving Algorithm & Systems Engineer - Taiwan Hsinchu, Taiwan
Originally posted 1 October 2026 by the employer.
About the role
This role involves developing and optimizing algorithms for autonomous driving systems across core modules like Perception, Localization, Motion Forecasting, Planning, and Real-Time Map Generation (RTMG).
What you'll do
- Design, implement, and optimize algorithms for Perception (object detection, classification, tracking), Prediction, Planning, Localization, and RTMG.
- Validate all inputs by verifying data formats, timing and synchronization, coordinate alignment, and fallback mechanisms for missing or degraded sensor data across camera, ego-motion (ODOM), radar, and lidar to comply with ISO 21448 (SOTIF) requirements.
- Collaborate with systems and software teams to integrate algorithms into the autonomous driving stack and deliver robust system-level solutions.
What you'll need
- Master's or Ph.D. degree.
- At least one year of relevant work or academic experience.
- Strong skills in autonomous driving algorithms or related system integration.
- Background in machine-learning-based computer vision or large language model (LLM) technologies.
- Familiarity with machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow.
- Proficient in Python and C/C++ programming.
Nice to have
- Experience of autonomous driving algorithm.
- Experience of model deployment.
- Experience of model optimization such as pruning and quantization.
