At Agtonomy, we’re not just building tech—we’re transforming how vital industries get work done. Our Physical AI and fleet services turn heavy machinery into intelligent, autonomous systems that tackle the toughest challenges in agriculture, turf, and beyond. Partnering with industry-leading equipment manufacturers, we’re creating a future where labor shortages, environmental strain, and inefficiencies are relics of the past. Our team is a tight-knit group of bold thinkers—engineers, innovators, and industry experts—who thrive on turning audacious ideas into reality. If you want to shape the future of industries that matter, this is your shot.
About the Role
As an engineer on the Autonomy Team, you will develop algorithms that enable our vehicles to plan safe trajectories around dynamic and static obstacles while meeting task objectives. You will work on creative solutions for the generation of local motion plans and optimal trajectories through semi-structured farms and other properties. You will work closely with perception, localization, and controls engineers on the team to design and evolve the upstream and downstream interfaces of the planning system. This role is perfect for someone who loves combining math and software, and is excited about applying their experience to make robots drive in intelligent ways in rugged environments.
