Research Scientist, SLAM & VIO

Mecka AI is hiring a Research Scientist focused on SLAM and Visual-Inertial Odometry to develop state estimation systems for robotics and embodied AI. This research-heavy, production-minded role involves building robust monocular and stereo visual odometry and SLAM pipelines, state-of-the-art structure-from-motion methods, and dense scene reconstruction systems like NeRF and Gaussian Splatting. The ideal candidate will ship algorithms that survive scale and operational edge cases, directly impacting real-world data quality for robotics applications.
