Join Our Team to Drive Advanced Autonomous Driving Solutions

Here at Lucid Motors, we are at the forefront of developing advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) solutions. As an ADAS Calibration Engineer, you will be an integral part of our team, driving the product development and deployment process to deliver top-notch ADAS/AD systems and components to our valued customers. We are seeking individuals with a can-do attitude, a passion for perfection, and a hunger for continuous learning.

Your Role:

• Develop, implement, and refine calibration algorithms and methodologies for intrinsic and extrinsic parameters across multiple sensor types including cameras, LiDARs, RADARs, IMUs, and other perception sensors.
• Design, automate, and maintain calibration workflows and pipelines for both offline (factory/lab) and online (in-field) calibration processes.
• Develop and configure physical calibration rigs and procedures for static and dynamic calibration routines.
• Detect sensor mis-calibrations and develop autonomous re-calibration algorithms to ensure ongoing sensor accuracy.
• Define and implement test, validation, and quality assurance procedures to maintain calibration consistency and reliability at scale.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams such as perception, SLAM, localization, hardware, manufacturing, and operations.
• Contribute to and maintain the calibration codebase, integrating with autonomy stacks and sensor fusion pipelines.
• Participate actively in mentoring junior engineers and driving technical excellence within the team.
• Work hands-on in lab and test environments, including direct interaction with hardware and vehicles.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or related fields. PhD is a plus.
• 5+ years of industrial experience in sensor calibration, robotics, autonomous systems, or related domains, 3+ years experience required with masters.
• Strong expertise in multi-sensor calibration techniques, geometric computer vision, and state estimation.
• Proficient in modern C++ (preferably including C++17/20) and Python programming languages.
• Experience with calibration of sensors such as cameras, LiDARs, RADARs, IMUs, GNSS, and wheel speed sensors.
• Familiarity with nonlinear optimization, state estimation, and sensor fusion principles.
• Demonstrated ability to develop software pipelines and tools to support calibration and sensor management workflows.
• Willing to travel to support build issues and field issues.

Preferred:

• Product engineering experience in one of the ADAS/AD areas, such as camera, radar, lidar, ultrasonic, ECU, domain controller, compute platform, or similar automotive systems and components.
• Hands-on experience with both offline factory calibration and online in-field calibration methods.
• Knowledge of calibration algorithms dealing with temperature and environmental variations.
• Experience working with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), end-of-line (EOL) testing frameworks, or simulation tools for calibration validation.
• Familiarity with SLAM, localization, mapping, and autonomous driving system development.
• Understanding of sensor noise characteristics and world representation transforms.
• Experience building and shipping software tools or frameworks used beyond the original development team.
• Willingness to work on-site with development and test teams; relocation preference for proximity to lab/test facility.
• Strong communication and mentoring skills, with a passion for collaborative development and continuous learning.
