The posting, in Aeva's own words
archived Oct 22, 2026What you'll do
Set up and run tests on LiDAR sensors in the lab and on vehicles for comprehensive characterization Develop automation software to accelerate lab testing and data collection Support field data collection across real-world scenarios, including preparing sensors and test setups and logging test conditions. Investigate system-level issues: reproduce the problem, collect diagnostic data, and work with the relevant engineering teams to find the root cause. Help develop, run, and verify sensor calibration procedures. Analyze sensor data with Python or MATLAB, and document and present results to the Systems team and cross-functional partners.
What you'll have
An MS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Optics/Photonics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with 0–2 years of industry experience. Hands-on lab experience with sensors, optical systems, or electronic test equipment from research, internships, or industry. Proficiency in Python or MATLAB for data analysis, and a foundation in signal processing, optics, or measurement statistics. A methodical approach to debugging problems that span hardware, firmware, and software, and clear written and verbal communication. Experience with LiDAR, radar, or other perception sensors, FMCW or coherent detection, or sensor calibration is a plus.
