As a Planning Engineer IV, you will focus on creating AI driven planning and decision-making systems that guide autonomous behavior in our robotic platforms. In this role you will build on the foundation of our AI Applications with a deeper focus on motion planning, decision modeling, and real time performance. You will develop intelligent planning algorithms, integrate them with simulation and control modules, and collaborate closely with robotics teams to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient autonomous operation.

Responsibilities:

• Develop AI based planning and decision models that drive autonomous robot behavior, path selection, and task execution.

• Integrate planning algorithms with motion planning, control systems, simulation environments, and other robotics modules.

• Embed planning models into production systems and platform services while ensuring compatibility with perception, control, and safety modules.

• Convert trained planning models into production ready components such as services, APIs, or embedded libraries.

• Tune algorithms for real time performance, low latency, and reliability to meet safety critical and operational requirements.

• Collaborate with robotics engineers, controls specialists, data scientists, and software developers to align model behavior with system requirements.

• Test and validate planning systems using simulation, hardware in the loop, and field deployments to ensure predictable and robust autonomous performance.

• Monitor deployed planning systems and refine models, parameters, and integration points to continuously improve efficiency, safety, and effectiveness.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical field.

• 10 years of experience working as a software engineer utilizing Python, C , and ROS.

• Experience developing AI or machine learning models for autonomous decision making or planning systems.

• Strong understanding of machine learning techniques, data modeling, and model deployment workflows.

• Hands on experience with motion planning, image processing, pathfinding, decision modeling, or related robotics planning domains.

• Experience integrating AI models into real time or near real time systems and tuning for performance.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities with the ability to translate system behavior into technical solutions.
