R&D Perception Engineer - CDI Toulouse

EasyMile is a global leader in autonomous technology for heavy‑duty vehicles in airports and industrial sites. Since 2014, our software has powered 400+ locations in 30 countries across 1,000,000+ km. We were the first to deploy Level 4 fully driverless operations and are ISO 9001 certified.

Join the Team

With 150 employees in Toulouse and Berlin, we seek creative and ambitious talents to build the future of driverless tech.

• Flexibility: 2 days of remote work/week.
• Well‑being: Swile cards, eco‑mobility allowance, and fresh fruit/coffee/tea.
• Culture: Regular team building, "EZtalks," and a proactive social committee (CSE).

The Team: Detection

The Detection team is the “eyes” of our autonomous vehicles. Their mission is to provide high‑fidelity environment perception:

• Obstacle Data: 3D positioning, existence probability, kinematics (static/dynamic), speed, history, and prediction.
• Object Pose Estimation: Specialized detection for loading docks, containers, and other key assets.
