  • Collaborate with different teams to integrate calibration solutions into our vehicles, ensuring top-tier quality and reliability.
  • Utilize extensive internal datasets to validate and demonstrate your research and development effectively.

What we are looking for:

  • Bachelor's Degree. Preferably Masters or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics or a related field. Or equivalent industry experience.
  • 3+ years of specialized experience in calibration, localization, or SLAM for autonomous vehicles or robotic systems, with a strong record of designing and executing advanced calibration strategies.
  • 3+ years of C++ software development proficiency, with a focus on building high-performance and resilient systems.
  • Past experience owning and leading technical development from problem conceptualization through research, implementation, and successful production deployment.
  • Past experience working with multiple sensors (LiDARs, Radars, IMU, Cameras).
  • Thirst for knowledge, continuous innovation, and a drive to push the boundaries of autonomous driving technology.

Motional's Singapore office is located at 85 Science Park Drive, in the center of Singapore's premier research and technology hub. Positioned near the vibrant one-north innovation district, it is surrounded by leading R&D facilities, tech companies, and green spaces. With convenient access to public transit and modern amenities, the office supports Motional's advanced engineering and autonomous vehicle development in Asia.

Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We're driven by something more.

Our journey is always people first.

We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We're creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it's not only good for our business, it's the right thing to do.  

Scale up, not starting up.

Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We're driven to scale; we're moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.

Formed as a joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and Aptiv, Motional is fundamentally changing how people move through their lives. Headquartered in Boston, Motional has operations in the U.S and Asia. For more information, visit  and follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and YouTube.
