SLAM Expert Application

Job Title : SLAM Expert

Location : Vapi, Gujarat

Employment Type : Full-Time

Overview

We are seeking a skilled SLAM Expert responsible for localization and mapping, including visual(-inertial), LiDAR, and multi-sensor fusion, as well as dense and semantic mapping. The role involves developing robust SLAM systems for various robotics platforms.

Key Responsibilities

Architect multi-modal SLAM systems (VIO / LIO / VLIO) with loop closure and relocalization.

Build scalable map stores, implement change detection, and support lifelong mapping.

Ensure tight integration with perception (semantic) and planning (topological / metric) modules.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deploy SLAM in real-world robotic systems.

Must-Haves

2–3+ years of experience in SLAM or related domains.

Strong programming skills in C++ / Rust and CUDA.

Expertise in factor graphs, optimization, and observability analysis.

Ability to ensure robustness to dynamics, low-texture environments, and varying lighting / weather conditions.

Nice-to-Haves

Experience with multi-robot SLAM and cloud mapping.

Knowledge of GNSS / RTK fusion.

Familiarity with HD maps and lane-level precision for automotive applications.

Success Metrics

Absolute Trajectory Error (ATE) / Relative Pose Error (RPE).

Relocalization latency.

Map freshness and size.

System failure rate.
