Senior Mapping Engineer

Senior Mapping Engineer – SLAM / LiDAR | York (Hybrid)

I’m currently working with an established and growing technology organisation that is scaling a next-generation autonomy platform, and they’re looking to bring in a Senior Mapping Engineer to play a key role in its evolution.

This is a genuinely impactful position where you’ll have the opportunity to shape mapping architecture, influence technical direction, and work on complex, real-world autonomy challenges.

What’s on offer:

• Senior, hands-on role with real ownership

• High-accuracy LiDAR and vision-based mapping at scale

• Strong focus on ROS2, C++ and multi-sensor fusion

• Hybrid working

The role:

You’ll take ownership of mapping capability across the autonomy stack, working end-to-end from architecture and algorithm design through to deployment and optimisation.

You’ll collaborate closely with perception and localisation teams, ensuring mapping outputs are robust, scalable and production-ready, while also mentoring engineers and contributing to best practice across the function.

Key experience:

• Strong background in SLAM, LiDAR and 3D mapping

• Experience with multi-sensor fusion (LiDAR, cameras, radar, GNSS/INS)

• Solid C++ and ROS2 expertise

• Experience with large-scale, real-world mapping deployments

• Understanding of geometry, optimisation and transformation systems

Desirable:

Semantic mapping, distributed systems, DDS or ML-driven scene understanding
