Senior Sensing Expert | Senior Expert Sensing (m/w/d)

Job Summary

As a Senior Sensing Expert, you will be the technical authority responsible for the evaluation and selection of advanced sensor technologies, including Camera, LiDAR, and Radar. Your day-to-day involves developing and validating proof-of-concepts for new sensor architectures and AI-supported perception approaches, with a heavy focus on signal processing, sensor fusion, and system robustness. You will bridge the gap between hardware, software, and system teams to ensure a cohesive sensorsystem concept while defining long-term technology roadmaps and strategic 'make-or-buy' decisions. This role is unique because it combines high-level strategic planning with hands-on technical validation and the professional mentorship of junior system developers. It is an ideal position for a technical leader who enjoys working on complex, multi-modal sensing systems in a high-stakes environment where reliability and low latency are critical.
