DESCRIPTION

Recently acquired by Amazon, Canvas Technology is using spatial AI to provide end-to-end autonomous delivery of goods. By using state-of-the-art cameras and other sensors, the system perceives its surroundings with unrivaled vision and fidelity. The system combines a mix of high-performance sensors with simultaneous localization and mapping software that builds and continuously updates maps in real-time, completely autonomously. It has the capability to ‘see’ and identify different objects, people, vehicles, and places as it moves and react to moving people and vehicles in an intelligent way.

Canvas is seeking a talented and motivated Electrical Engineer to work on system design, implementation and release to manufacturing. The ideal candidate will have experience in board bring up, developing test diagnostics and device drivers as well as have the ability to own a component or sub-system from concept to manufacturing. This candidate must have the ability to work well both independently and in team settings. This position reports directly to the Electrical Engineering Manager.

Some of the key job functions of the Electrical Engineer include:

· Work with an interdisciplinary team to execute product designs from concept to production including design, prototyping, validation, testing and certification.
· Work multiple tasks in parallel.
· Work with cross-functional teams as required by the project.
· Writing and developing functional specifications, design verification plans and test procedures.
· Designing and implementing complex embedded system, analog and digital circuit design and systems debugging.
· Supporting product releases to manufacturing and customer deployments.
· Execute tasks to aggressive schedules.
· Establish development processes to meet industry standards for functionally safe control systems (IEC 61508).
