Teams at Shield AI

Lead multi-year strategic planning and annual operating cycles, evaluate portfolio tradeoffs, build financial models for capital allocation, and translate strategy into cross-functional execution plans with KPIs. Conduct market sizing, competitive analysis, scenario modeling, and track performance through operating cadences to identify bottlenecks and recommend solutions.

Develop state estimation and navigation algorithms for autonomous systems operating in GPS-denied environments. Build production-grade C++ software for embedded Linux robotic platforms, create modeling and simulation tools, and implement comprehensive testing and validation. Collaborate on roadmap planning and agile execution while improving benchmarking and performance-analysis pipelines. The role requires professional C++ expertise, state estimation algorithm experience, sensor-fusion familiarity, and the ability to deploy reliable autonomy software.

Develop deep learning and 3D computer vision models for state estimation, visual navigation, localization, depth, correspondence, and pose estimation. Own data preparation, training, evaluation, benchmarking, and reproducible workflows. Integrate learned measurements into VIO and terrain-relative navigation systems, optimize models for onboard compute, and collaborate with deployment, software, systems, and flight-test teams to deliver production-ready Hivemind SDK components.
