Job Summary

Own the creation and validation of high-definition maps that autonomous tractors use for airport airside operations. You’ll manage an end-to-end mapping request queue, build and update HD maps in a “maps as code” workflow using JOSM and Lanelet2/OpenStreetMap tooling, and validate changes via Map CI plus simulation and on-tractor testing in Atlanta. Collaborate with autonomy, operations, and test engineers, and coordinate with external mapping vendors.

•Submit map changes via pull requests through the map repository and validate them through Map CI (validation, connectivity, path-feasibility checks).
•Validate every change in simulation first, then test on the tractor in Atlanta as needed.
•Maintain map hygiene and coordinate with external mapping vendors to validate and integrate large-scale map deliveries.
