Senior Data Scientist (C++ with Robotics background)

We are hiring for a Senior Data Scientist (C++ with Robotics background) in Pune, India. Exp: 5+ years Location: Pune (WFO - Hybrid for 2 days) Notice Period: Immediate to 30 days Skills Required: C, C++, Data, Lang chain and CICD Our client is a company that enables people, enterprises, and cities to harness the power of location. By making sense of the world through the lens of location, it empowers their customers to achieve better outcomes from helping a city manage its infrastructure or an enterprise optimize its assets to delivering drivers to their destination safely. Project Overview: This project is enhancing its Data Aggregation Service as part of a new delivery pipeline that extends the existing UniMap (UnIM) work. The service aggregates Vehicle Probe Data (VPD) raw sensor data collected from vehicles (not imagery) and extracts features from it to support map alignment (VPD2 Map Alignment). The service is polyglot: most components are JVM-based (Java, Scala, Python), but a meaningful part of the aggregation algorithms exists in C++ and C#. These algorithms are containerized (Docker) and plugged into the service so the pipeline can invoke them to process incoming vehicle sensor data. This role will focus on productionizing, maintaining, and enhancing that C++/C# algorithm layer. This is an extension to an existing, distributed team with members based in India, the US, and Europe. The India-based hires will report to the India engineering manager and work closely with global team members across time zones not in isolation. Requirements: The Senior Data Scientist will work on the algorithmic core of the VPD aggregation pipeline the C++/C# based algorithms used to process raw vehicle sensor data for map alignment. A robotics background, particularly experience with SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) based approaches, is strongly preferred, as it maps closely to the techniques used in this domain (localization, mapping, and environment modeling from sensor data). Required Skills & Experience Approximately 5 plus years of experience, at a senior data science / applied-research level. Strong programming ability in C++. Background in robotics, autonomous vehicles, or drones, with hands-on exposure to SLAM-based approaches. Solid foundation in linear algebra and computational geometry as applied to spatial/sensor data problems. Experience with algorithmic data filtering and processing of sensor data (not imagery). .
