About this role

AeroVect seeks a Mapping Engineer to build and maintain high-definition maps for autonomous airport tractors. You'll own the full lifecycle of mapping requests—from intake through validation in simulation and on hardware—using tools like JOSM and Lanelet2 in a hands-on, onsite Atlanta role.

  • Create and edit HD maps (lanes, intersections, routes, regulatory elements) using JOSM and in-house Lanelet2 tooling
  • Submit map changes via pull requests through the repository, ensuring validation and connectivity checks pass in Map CI
  • Validate changes in simulation and conduct hardware testing on autonomous tractors in Atlanta
  • Document testing results with evidence (sim videos, diffs, test reports)
  • Maintain map consistency and scalability through documentation, deduplication, and vendor coordination

What they're looking for

  • HD map creation and editing (Lanelet2, OpenStreetMap)
  • Git and pull-request workflows
  • Python scripting
  • Linux command-line proficiency
  • JOSM or similar GIS mapping tools
  • Simulation and validation testing
  • Technical documentation and written communication
