Our automated driving SW stack aiDrive will be deployed to millions of production vehicles in the upcoming years, thanks to our recently announced OEM partnership. In the course of this development journey, you will be able to impact and witness the creation of state-of-the-art automated driving applications on highways, interurban and urban areas, as well as parking situations, using the latest automotive sensor technologies and advanced machine learning algorithms. All this will be supported by fleet data at scale, paired with our unique data pipeline and infrastructure as provided by aiMotive’s aiData. 

Mapping and navigation are a key features of automated driving: the vehicle needs to be able to automatically follow navigational routes, assess information available from the map and even have the capability to detect map-to-world mismatch based on live detections. As a map and navigation developer your role is to enable the AD SW stack to utilize available map information and provide the navigational route-based inputs to the motion planning stack. You will closely work with the motion planning and environment modelling teams to contribute to the overarching goal of bringing safe automated driving to our roads.
