Team
The Functional Safety team ensures the product meets the safety caliber set forth within the company by leveraging existing standards, but also creating novel safety approaches to the novel problem of L3 autonomy. Our team is responsible for the entire safety lifecycle during the core development and application of the system into a serial-production vehicle. Come help us make the world safer, and the task of driving more relaxed.
Our team leverages a variety of backgrounds, ranging from robotics, systems engineering, high performance software development, and embedded and industrial software engineering. We collaborate closely with experts in machine learning, prediction/planning, sensor processing, and simulation from across Latitude AI’s product development teams to understand the systems they build, the possible failure modes, and how to detect and respond to those failures.
