Job Description

Radar Test Vehicle Operator - part-time 5-10 hours per week

Who We Are:

Zendar is creating a high-resolution radar imaging system that has resolution similar to lidar, allowing cars to see the driving world in all conditions and at long distances to travel at high speeds. We want to change the role of radar in the Advanced driving assist (ADAS) sensor stack and demonstrate that radars can take on many of the functions of lidar at a much lower cost. Zendar has pioneered a software-defined radar technology which fuses data streams from multiple sensors to build a more accurate scene and utilizes machine learning to understand the environment. All of this works in an embedded AI processor with tight latency and performance guarantees to deliver reliable sensing and perception.

Zendar was founded in the San Francisco Bay area, at the very heart of one of the most advanced regions in the development of advanced vehicles technologies. We also have offices in Germany and France. 

Zendar has a diverse and dynamic team of electrical, mechanical, RF, algorithms and software engineers with a deep background in sensing technology. Zendar is backed by Tier-1 VCs, has raised more than $50M in funding and has established strong partnerships with industry leaders. Our team has more than doubled in number over the last year as our technology has gained traction in the automotive and agriculture industries.

Who You Are:

We are developing radar perception AI models that allow radar sensors to understand the world around them. With modern AI-based perception, radar can be used in safety, comfort, and autonomy applications in passenger cars. Because training AI models is very data hungry, data collection is a key underpinning of our ability to develop these technologies. 

In this role, you will be participating in our AI perception model development efforts by operating our data collection car. This car is equipped with multiple radar, lidar, and camera sensors which collect real-world data. Through this effort, you will be exposed to the sensor setup and data collection strategies that underpin real-world AI development. You will get a chance to see and influence how we decide what data to collect, how this data is obtained, stored, and processed, and how this improves the quality of our perception models.

The data collection car is controlled through a Linux-based server and a web UI. You will be responsible for operating this system and driving the vehicle on pre-defined local routes for regular acquisition and testing periods throughout the week. Some basic Linux familiarity and knowledge of how to clone and build Github repos is necessary to operate the system. You may be required to troubleshoot issues that you encounter and report issues to the engineering team. This is a part time role with time worked varying from 5 to 10 hours per week (somewhat flexible schedule).

What We Look For:

  • You need to be enrolled in an undergrad program in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or another technical discipline
  • Experience working with computer hardware and software
  • Familiarity with professional software development tools and scripting languages, such as git and bash
  • Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
  • A valid California driver's license
  • Strong sense of ownership and eagerness to learn

What We Have To Offer:

  • Opportunity to make an impact at a young, venture-backed company in an emerging market
  • Hourly rate of $18.67
  • Mandatory sick leave: one hour per 30 hours worked
  • No other benefits apply to this role

Zendar participates in E-Verify.

Zendar is committed to creating a diverse environment where talented people come to do their best work. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
