Perception Intern, Fall 2026

Mach9 is offering a Perception Intern position focused on advancing its core products through machine learning and geospatial technology. The intern will develop and improve 2D image and 3D point cloud models for detecting urban and roadway features, implement real-time perception algorithms, and tune machine learning models for performance and accuracy.

Responsibilities:

• Develop an initial prototype to detect paint lines and curbs on roadways. (This project ended up developing into one of our new products)
• Bring our perception models and algorithms into a real-time detection domain, trading off accuracy for speed to run on an advanced edge mapping hardware system
• Assist in the development and tuning of machine learning models to enhance performance and accuracy
