　　• Influence Ford’s strategic roadmap

　　• Work with some of the top talent in the industry spanning cross-functional teams: R&A, User Experience (UX/HMI), Safety (ADAS), production software, multiple hardware teams and vehicle program

　　You'll have...

　　• Bachelor’s degree in computer engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related field

　　• 1+ years in augmented reality solutions or ADAS (specifically with pose and/or localization, data sensor fusion, computer vision, OpenGL-based visualization)

　　• 1+ years’ experience working with data structures and algorithms supporting sensor fusion

　　• 2+ years’ experience in modern C++ to solve complex algorithms (exposure to Qt development a plus)

　　Even better, you may have...

　　• Master’s degree in computer engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related field

　　• Comfortable leveraging Python to quickly narrow problem domains to specific solutions and gain insights

　　• Domain knowledge in Advance Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensors/data/algorithms

　　• Software development experience working in an embedded/mobile environment

　　• Experience with 3D graphics/animations/shader development

　　• Expertise in Linux system administration, capable of configuring autostart procedures, optimizing service performance, and maintaining robust network configurations

　　• Demonstrable relevant code in a GitHub repo
