About the job
About the Company
At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners. Now a part of the Daimler family, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.
Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.
Meet the team
Torc’s Perception teams develop the production machine learning systems that enable our autonomous trucks to understand their surroundings. The Active Sensors team owns the end-to-end lidar perception pipeline, from motion compensation and point-cloud aggregation to multitask learned perception for object detection, road and lane understanding, 3D occupancy estimation for safe vehicle operations. These systems must run in real-time on embedded compute while remaining robust to adverse weather, sensor degradation, and sensor failures. The team works across machine learning, 3D perception, and embedded systems, balancing perception performance and robustness against latency, memory, power and on-board compute budget.
