Why we read it this way (8)
The job title says 'Robotics Engineer' in the compensation section but 'Edge AI Perception Engineer' in the title/overview — the role is clearly a perception/AI software engineering position; classified accordingly.
No minimum years of overall experience are stated; the JD gates on demonstrated real-world experience rather than a specific year count.
No degree requirement is stated anywhere in the posting.
CVAT (labeling workflow tool) appears in the responsibilities narrative rather than a formal requirements section, so it is treated as preferred context.
LiDAR, sensor fusion (camera/LiDAR/IMU), ROS2, and camera calibration/ISP tuning appear under the 'Preferred Experience' heading and are treated accordingly.
GMSL/ARGUS/VIC camera integration appears in the responsibilities section as work to be performed but is explicitly called out as preferred experience ('low-level camera system integration') — treated as preferred.
The compensation range ($150,000–$250,000/year) is labeled 'Robotics Engineer' in the posting, which appears to be a generic internal title; it is taken as the applicable range for this role.
Arvada, CO falls within the Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, CO CBSA (19740).
