Join the team!
MIT Driverless is looking for talented and passionate engineers to be a part of a team dedicated to making an autonomous race car capable of high-speed head-to-head races.
Technical capabilities are excellent, but we also want people who are fun to be around. Our team spends a lot of time together, discussing code over lunch, working on problem sets, and just hanging out playing board games. We’re here to learn and support each other, to build friendships that last beyond our time at MIT.
Our teammates go on to companies like Motional, Waymo, Aptiv, Tesla, and Zoox. Along with our additional sponsors Oracle, Mobilitas, Waymo, the ecosystem we live in is inspirational and shows a clear path to being a successful engineer in the autonomous vehicle space.
We are actively recruiting for team members to join the following roles:
State Estimation - Responsible for accurately estimating vehicle pose and vehicle kinematic state using a combination of GPS, IMU, camera, etc.
Perception - Ensure accurate, fast, and robust perception during high speed racing, which includes sensors like camera, LiDAR and radar, while dealing with noisy, uncertain, and incomplete information.
Simulation - Responsible for designing and executing varied and comprehensive race scenarios and unit testing across the entire system
Controls - Use traditional control as well as model predictive control to find safe (yet aggressive) acceleration and steering commands at over 150 mph!
Infrastructure - Ensure the integrity and dependability of our entire infrastructure, including ROS, environment, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, testing.
Path Planning - Develop multi-agent planning algorithms to maneuver around other vehicles at similar speeds
Biz Ops - Work on cool business initiatives, to support the technical teams. Roles include Sponsor Management, Marketing, Event planning, etc.
