About the job
As a SEAM Intern, you will work on a well-scoped research or engineering project related to sensing, estimation, localization, mapping, or autonomy reliability. You will collaborate with experienced engineers and researchers to design algorithms, implement software, evaluate system performance, and understand how sensing capabilities operate in real-world autonomous driving systems. Potential focus areas include state estimation and sensor fusion, sensor alignment and calibration, localization, next-generation mapping, and fallback and secondary capabilities.
Responsibilities
- Develop, prototype, and evaluate algorithms for sensor fusion, state estimation, localization, calibration, mapping, or related autonomy capabilities.
- Work with camera, lidar, radar, inertial, vehicle, map, and other multimodal data sources.
- Implement software and tools for data processing, visualization, offline analysis, simulation, and system evaluation.
- Analyze accuracy, robustness, latency, and failure modes across diverse operating conditions.
- Apply software engineering best practices, including design reviews, code reviews, automated testing, continuous integration, and documentation.
- Collaborate with perception, planning, controls, robotics, systems engineering, and vehicle-program partners.
- Communicate technical findings and contribute to design discussions and project documentation.
Requirements
- Currently enrolled in or pursuing a Masters degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related technical field.
- Demonstrated experience through coursework, research, academic projects, or professional work in robotics, state estimation, sensor fusion, computer vision, localization, mapping, controls, or a related area.
- Strong programming skills in C++ and/or Python.
- Strong foundation in linear algebra, probability, geometry, optimization, or estimation methods.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional, team-oriented environment.
- Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills.
- Availability to work full-time, 40 hours per week, during the internship period.
- Must be graduating between December 2027 and June 2028.
Benefits
- Monthly salary of $11,800.
- One-time lump sum taxable stipend payment.
- Paid U.S. GM holidays.
- GM Family First Vehicle Discount Program.
- Potential for growth within GM based on performance and business needs.
- Intern events and opportunities to network with company leaders and peers.
- Mentorship and hands-on experience with the data and ML foundations behind autonomy.
