Software Developer – LiDAR-Based ODS for Railway Stations (f/m/d)

About the Position

We are looking for a Software Developer – LiDAR-Based ODS for Railway Stations (f/m/d) to join our team. This role involves working on an international project for an obstacle detection system using LiDAR technology in railway stations.

Responsibilities

• Sensor Data Processing & Fusion

  • Processing and fusion of point cloud data from a large number of LiDAR sensors
  • Calibration, registration, and pre-processing of multi-sensor setups
  • Noise filtering and data quality assurance across heterogeneous sensor configurations

• Detection & Classification Algorithms

  • Development and optimization of state-of-the-art algorithms for obstacle detection and classification (e.g., clustering, segmentation, deep-learning-based approaches)
  • Adaptation and tuning of algorithms to railway-specific environmental conditions

• GPU-based Implementation

  • Porting and optimization of algorithms for GPU architectures (e.g., CUDA, TensorRT)
  • Ensuring real-time capable performance on embedded GPU platforms (NVIDIA AGX platform)

• High-Volume Data Handling & Real-Time Processing

  • Architecture and implementation of data pipelines for latency-free real-time processing of high-volume LiDAR data streams
  • Efficient data recording, buffering, and streaming for logging and offline analysis
  • Scalable design to accommodate a large number of sensors per station

Requirements

• Experience with LiDAR / 3D point cloud processing and sensor fusion
• Knowledge of obstacle detection, object classification, and AI-based algorithms
• Experience with GPU computing, ideally CUDA / TensorRT and NVIDIA AGX
• Strong understanding of real-time data processing and high-volume data pipelines
• Experience with multi-sensor systems and data quality assurance
• Experience in at least two of the following areas: sensor fusion, detection algorithms, GPU implementation, real-time data processing
• Experience with agile development methods (Scrum)
• Fluent English skills; German is a plus

We Offer

• Opportunity to work on an international project
• Flexible working arrangements: Braunschweig and Berlin plus regular trips (roughly every 1-2 months) to Nuremberg or Copenhagen / REMOTE

About the Company

This role is part of an international project aimed at enhancing safety and efficiency in railway stations using advanced LiDAR technology.
