Who are we?

Oxa is enabling the transition to self-driving vehicles through an initial focus on the most commercially advanced sector; the autonomous shuttling of goods and people.We are home to some of the world's leading experts on autonomous vehicles, creating solutions such as Oxa Driver, equipping vehicles with full self-driving functionality; Oxa MetaDriver, using Generative AI to accelerate and assure the safety of deployments; and Oxa Hub, a set of cloud-based offerings for autonomous fleet management. Our technology is being deployed across the UK and the U.S, and we're partnering with a fast-growing ecosystem of operators, vehicle OEMs and equipment makers serving autonomous transportation globally as it advances.

Based in Oxford, and with offices in Canada and the U.S, Oxa was founded in 2014 and is growing rapidly (350+ 'Oxbots' to date). Our purpose is to change the way the Earth moves, through an uncompromising focus on safety, efficiency and explainability of our AI approaches. The company has attracted $225 million from leading investors so far, with $140 million raised in the last Series C funding round in January 2023.

Your role:

Joining our Scene Maker team, this is a pivotal opportunity for a Senior Engineer to focus on providing a complete but concise description of the world around an autonomous vehicle. Our team is part of the Localisation & Mapping stream which is responsible for generating a semantic understanding of the vehicle's local environment to allow for sound decision making. The Scene Maker team fuses data from both offline information from maps and online information from localisation, object detection/tracking and semantic classifications.

Your responsibilities:

Development

  • Designing, developing and delivering semantic understanding software, systems, products and tooling.
  • Discussions with the team on high level design decisions for various parts of our local scene building stack.
  • Prototyping or implementing and testing algorithms for improving our semantic understanding systems.
  • Working cross-functionally to coordinate with other teams to deliver new features.
  • Working with data from multiple sources (static and dynamic) and the synchronisation of that data.
  • Developing and testing our local scene API which is used by multiple other systems.
  • Performance analysis and optimisation of software to meet required real time constraints.

Leadership

  • Providing technical direction and advice for other members of the Scene Maker team.
  • Liaising with leaders throughout the company to understand the overall drive, direction and technical needs of the company, and how that impacts and steers our team.

Communication

  • You will be encouraged to share your ideas with the team and the wider business.
  • You will interact with other teams to learn about the autonomy system and gain exposure to all aspects of the business.
Requirements

What you need to succeed:

  • Demonstrated experience and excellence in algorithms development for robotics especially for semantic understanding and mapping.
  • Demonstrated excellence in software development for production systems. For example using testing, safety, and performance to inform design and implementation decisions.
  • Software development experience and knowledge of C++11/14/17.
  • Working knowledge of Python (Numpy, Scipy, Jupyter Notebooks, etc).
  • A measured, scientific approach to building complex engineering systems

Extra kudos if you have:

  • The ability to understand and debug complex system interactions across a large codebase.
  • Work collaboratively across multi-disciplinary teams.
  • A PhD or Master's degree in engineering or computer science.
  • Experience working with and analysing map data (road networks, infrastructure etc.) particularly formats such as OpenDRIVE

Our Senior Engineer joining the Scenemaker team could have a previous career within any of the below:

  • Software Engineer working within an AV mapping organisation.
  • Master/PhD background with expertise in mobile robotics.
  • Software Engineer with experience working on production systems.
  • Software Engineer with experience deploying algorithms to real time production systems.
Benefits

We provide:

  • Competitive salary, benchmarked against the market and reviewed annually
  • Hybrid and/or flexible work arrangements
  • An outstanding £3,000 flexible benefits including private medical insurance, critical illness coverage, life assurance, EAP, group income protection
  • A salary exchange pension plan
  • 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
  • A pet-friendly office environment
  • Safe assigned spaces for team members with individual and diverse needs

Oxa is proud to be an inclusive organisation and, as such, we require all team members within our recruitment process to understand and deploy best practices focused on de-biasing the whole recruitment cycle.We also apply a neuro inclusive lens to our recruitment process and want each potential Oxbot to enjoy the best experience possible for them. Please share with us any individual needs or reasonable adjustments we may need to make in advance of commencing the interview process with us.

Learn more about our culture here.

Why become an Oxbot?

Our team of experts in computer science, AI, robotics and machine learning is world-class, and together they're solving the most exciting and important technological challenges of our times.

But as well as smarts, Oxbots have heart. Our diverse, multi-cultural crew is guided by a shared vision to bring the myriad benefits of autonomy to our customers and partners. And in a company that celebrates uniqueness as much as skill and experience, they do it with energy, conviction and a healthy dose of excitement, too.
