SE3 Labs
As a Senior Perception Engineer, you will own the spatial state-estimation layer for SE3 Labs' autonomous UAV platform, designing robust perception systems that operate reliably in GPS-denied or degraded real-world conditions. The role involves developing algorithms for visual-inertial odometry, SLAM, and sensor fusion while optimizing pipelines for onboard compute on platforms like Nvidia Jetson. You will collaborate across robotics, embedded, and hardware teams to translate perception research into fieldable capabilities for applications ranging from construction to defence.
SE3 Labs is a European AI company specializing in spatial understanding for autonomous systems, primarily serving the defence sector. Founded by experts from Tesla Autopilot, Nvidia Research, and leading academic institutions, the company builds AI that enables machines to perceive, reason, and act autonomously in the physical world. Their technology provides real-time 3D reconstruction of operational environments and allows operators to command and control multiple autonomous systems through natural language interfaces.
