About Torc Robotics

Torc Robotics pioneers Level 4 self-driving software for commercial trucks. We transform the freight industry by developing safe, scalable, and efficient autonomous technology. As an independent subsidiary of Daimler Truck, we focus on commercializing highly automated trucks on U.S. roads. Our core product is a 'virtual driver' software suite, integrating advanced sensors like LiDAR, radar, and cameras. We leverage generalized representations, not high-definition maps, to reduce operating costs and expand quickly. Our solutions aim to improve road safety, address driver shortages, and enhance operational efficiency in trucking.

How We Work

Torc's culture is collaborative, energetic, and deeply team-focused. We foster an open, accessible atmosphere where asking questions and trying new solutions is encouraged. Decision-making often happens in open communication channels. You will find flexibility in your schedule, with many roles offering remote options across the U.S. and Canada. We believe in continuous growth, providing leadership training and mentorship opportunities.

Engineering at Torc Robotics

Our engineers tackle complex challenges in autonomous driving, from processing petabyte-scale sensor data to developing robust machine learning models. You will craft high-performance data converters for multi-modal sensor inputs like camera, LiDAR, and radar, ensuring precise time alignment. We build large-scale ingestion and transformation pipelines using distributed compute frameworks like Ray, Spark, and Anyscale. We also engineer HiL test benches for validating autonomous driving software and system-level functionality. Our team integrates industry-leading sensors and develops sophisticated ML models for perception, prediction, and planning, pushing the boundaries of AI in real-world freight operations.
