    THE TEAM AND ITS MISSION 

    We are a cross-functional team developing an ultra-wideband (UWB) based Local Positioning System (LPS) to enable our advanced player and ball tracking solutions. To capture and provide precise position and motion data in the sports environment, we are developing a full-stack of software components including firmware, backend and frontend applications. Joining our team, you will optimize existing algorithms for position tracking, but also create completely new KINEXON products in collaboration with your colleagues from other software and hardware departments.

    • Good knowledge of working and coding with MATLAB and object-oriented programming in C++ 
    • Practical experience in filter design for state estimation, including variations of Kalman and/or particle filters 
    • Advanced mathematical knowledge in statistics, numeric, and optimization 
    • Fluency in English or German 
    • You are a reliable team player willing to take on responsibility and move the team forward with your own solutions 

     

    YOUR TASKS

    • Designing, developing and maintaining the algorithms that transform raw sensor timestamps into positions, velocity and orientation of a moving player, ball, etc.

    OUR TECH STACK 

    For prototyping, designing, and analyzing our position estimation algorithms we use MATLAB as a fundamental tool. The algorithms are integrated into a C++ backend for performance reasons. Besides C++, we use a much more diverse tech stack in our backend, incorporating Golang, Python, Rust, and Java- & TypeScript. For managing the deployment of our distributed system as well as aiding our development needs, we make use of a dockerized workflow.
