Senior Perception Engineer - London | Hybrid | £110,000–£140,000 + Bonus + Equity
Autonomous systems don't fail because of control algorithms.
They fail because they don't understand the world around them.
We're working with an ambitious deep-tech company building next-generation autonomous technology where perception sits at the heart of everything they do. This isn't another AI startup building chatbots. It's real-world autonomy solving complex problems using advanced sensor fusion, computer vision and machine learning.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll be developing perception systems that allow autonomous platforms to understand, classify and navigate challenging environments using cameras, LiDAR, radar and inertial sensors. Expect to work across object detection, localisation, SLAM and multi-sensor fusion, taking ideas from research into deployed products.
This is a role for engineers who enjoy solving difficult problems rather than assembling existing frameworks.
You'll ideally have experience with:
- Computer Vision or Perception for autonomous systems
- Sensor Fusion, SLAM or localisation
- C++ and Python
- ROS/ROS2, CUDA or similar robotics tooling
- Deploying ML models onto real hardware
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll join a small engineering team where your work directly influences product direction rather than becoming one small part of a huge organisation.
Package
- £110,000–£140,000
- Annual bonus
