Job Description:

We are inviting Expressions of Interest from skilled ADAS Engineers to support a high-profile Driver Assistance Technology program focused on trailer reversing and Pro Trailer Backup Assist (PTBA). This work will play a crucial role in collecting and analysing real-world vehicle and trailer data to support the development of advanced AI-driven driver assistance systems.

The project involves collecting and annotating video data from rear-view cameras during trailer manoeuvres, with the goal of training a neural network that enhances the 
Pro-Trailer Backup Assist (PTBA)
 feature. This technology simplifies trailer reversing by allowing the driver to steer the trailer with a dedicated control, while the system manages vehicle steering. The service will involve hands-on testing, vehicle instrumentation, troubleshooting, and data reporting, with findings integrated into global engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead data collection across multiple trailers, bullbars, and surfaces.
• Set up and operate vehicle instrumentation and logging systems.
• Perform vehicle testing at proving grounds and external sites (e.g., boat ramps, deep-water scenarios).
• Collect data in varied environments and weather conditions, including night drives.
• Ensure all diagnostic issues are identified and resolved.
• Provide structured feedback, test reports, and program status updates.
• Support annotation and validation work for AI/Neural Network model training.

Qualifications:

• Graduate or Degree in Automotive, Electrical, or Mechatronics Engineering (or equivalent technical qualification) with an ideal experience range of 1 to 2 years in the automotive field is preferred.
• Strong experience in ADAS feature development, validation, or testing.
• Proven diagnostics/CAN-based experience and knowledge of vehicle electrical systems.
• Hands-on trailer towing and reversing experience (must have).
• Knowledge of data logger systems – set-up, usage, troubleshooting, and fault finding.
• Independent, proactive problem solver with strong collaboration skills.
• Excellent communication skills to liaise with local and international teams.
• Valid Australian (or equivalent international) driver's licence with strong driving record.
• Tier 2 driver certification with towing (or equivalent trailer towing credentials) preferred.
