Aptiv
Why join Aptiv? You'll have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge applications, develop breakthrough technologies, and deliver innovative solutions to some of the world's leading automotive brands. See your work come to life on the road-helping make mobility safer, greener, and more connected. Ready to shape the future of mobility with us?
YOUR ROLE We are seeking a
hands-on Algorithm Development Lead
with deep expertise in
map-based localization
to architect and deliver critical components of our automated driving stack. This is a high-impact technical role with strong growth potential - including the opportunity to build and lead a team of engineers focused on localization and related algorithms.
You'll work closely with cross-functional teams to develop precise, real-time localization solutions for L2+ and L3 systems, while setting the foundation for future scalability, performance, and system-level integration.
In your daily job you will: Design and implement advanced
localization algorithms
(map matching, sensor fusion, GNSS/IMU, LiDAR/camera). Develop efficient, production-grade code in
C++/C
and validate across SIL, HIL, and vehicle platforms. Define technical strategy, KPIs, and system interfaces for the localization stack. Debug and optimize using tools like
Lauterbach TRACE32
and validate via
GTest
and in-vehicle data analysis. Collaborate with planning, perception, systems, and controls teams to ensure end-to-end algorithm performance. Contribute to architectural decisions and guide roadmap development for localization solutions. Mentor junior developers
and contribute to team-building efforts as the localization function expands.
YOUR BACKGROUND Key skills and competencies for succeeding in this role are: 5+ years in ADAS or autonomous systems with a focus on
localization and sensor fusion . Deep understanding of
Kalman filters, SLAM, probabilistic estimation,
and coordinate transformations. Expert level experience in
dead reckoning . Strong understand for trajectory planning based on both vision and map. Strong coding skills in
C++14/17 , C, Python, and MATLAB. Hands-on experience with real-time debugging and test tools (e.g.,
Lauterbach, GTest ). Ability to translate system-level requirements into testable, production-quality code. Excellent collaboration and communication skills with a growth mindset.
NICE TO HAVES Familiarity with
AUTOSAR Classic or Adaptive
software environment and RTE basics. Working knowledge of ISO 26262 / SoTIF standards. Background in technical mentoring, team ramp-up, or leading small technical teams. Experience with ROS, RTMaps, ADTF, or custom simulation tools.
