Strategic track in autonomous transport solution
At the strategic track of Autonomous Transport Solution, we create solutions that empower our vehicles to drive autonomously on public roads. Overseeing both our vehicles and our software is fantastic because it allows us to make choices and see them in action. We already have in-house designed prototype vehicles on the road, and our goal is to have a final driverless product. Even while having a solid organization that ensures realization of our incredible ideas, we maintain a start-up mentality in the atmosphere of the many imaginative discussions.
About the role
Our autonomous vehicles use sensor data and high-definition maps to understand their surroundings and plan safe actions. These maps are crucial for the vehicle's situational awareness and overall system operation.
Your team's responsibilities include creating, enhancing, and maintaining high-definition maps. You will collaborate closely with stakeholders within Scania and the TRATON group, ensuring continuous engagement on all HD map-related matters. Additionally, your team will focus on developing an automated and scalable multi-modal mapping system.
