Develop and improve navigation, localization, and tracking algorithms
Design and implement estimation frameworks for dynamic systems
Develop filtering and fusion algorithms, including:
Kalman filters
Extended / Unscented Kalman filters
Bayesian estimation methods
Multi-sensor fusion
Build motion and measurement models for real-world navigation scenarios
Analyze system performance under noise, uncertainty, and degraded conditions
Develop simulation and evaluation tools in Python, MATLAB, or C++
Work closely with multidisciplinary R&D teams to integrate algorithms into operational systems
Support algorithm validation through simulation, recorded data, and system-level testing
Requirements
M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or a related field
Strong background in:
Estimation theory
Navigation algorithms
Localization and tracking
Linear algebra, probability, and dynamic systems
3+ years of hands-on experience developing navigation / estimation / tracking algorithms
Strong programming skills in Python, or C++
Experience with one or more of the following:
Kalman filtering
Sensor fusion
Inertial navigation
Localization
Motion estimation
Autonomous systems
Ability to translate mathematical concepts into robust and practical algorithms
Advantages
