Job Opportunity
We are seeking highly skilled professionals to support a flagship Driver Assistance Technology program focused on trailer reversing and Pro Trailer Backup Assist (PTBA).
The project involves collecting and annotating video data from rear-view cameras during trailer manoeuvres, with the goal of training a neural network that enhances the Pro Trailer Backup Assist (PTBA) feature. This technology simplifies trailer reversing by allowing the driver to steer the trailer with a dedicated control, while the system manages vehicle steering.
* Lead data collection across multiple trailers, bullbars, and surfaces.
* Set up and operate vehicle instrumentation and logging systems.
* Perform vehicle testing at proving grounds and external sites (e.g., boat ramps, deep-water scenarios).
* Collect data in varied environments and weather conditions, including night drives.
* Ensure all diagnostic issues are identified and resolved.
* Provide structured feedback, test reports, and program status updates.
* Support annotation and validation work for AI/Neural Network model training.
Requirements
* Graduate or degree in Automotive, Electrical, or Mechatronics Engineering (or equivalent technical qualification) with an ideal experience range of 1 to 2 years in the automotive field is preferred.
* Strong experience in ADAS feature development, validation, or testing.
* Proven diagnostics/CAN-based experience and knowledge of vehicle electrical systems.
* Hands-on trailer towing and reversing experience (must have).
* Knowledge of data logger systems – set-up, usage, troubleshooting, and fault finding.
* Independent, proactive problem solver with strong collaboration skills.
* Excellent communication skills to liaise with local and international teams.
* Valid Australian (or equivalent international) driver's licence with strong driving record.
* Tier 2 driver certification with towing (or equivalent trailer towing credentials) preferred.
