[Company Introduction]

SUTPC Digital Technology (Hong Kong) Co., Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shenzhen Urban Transport Planning Center (SUTPC), a leading intelligent transportation enterprise in China. As a tech tenant of Hong Kong Science Park and one of the first approved entities for Hong Kong’s Low-Altitude Economy pilot projects, the Company serves as the Group’s overseas headquarters, focusing on cutting-edge sectors including low-altitude economy, digital twin, and Shenzhen-Hong Kong cross-border integration. It undertakes core missions of international validation of new technologies and R&D for cross-border applications. We are now inviting applications for a mid-level R&D Engineer to join our core low-altitude economy and digital twin projects.

Job Responsibilities

· Conduct core R&D in low-altitude economy, focusing on the coding, debugging and optimization of key modules including low-altitude airspace modeling, path planning, obstacle avoidance algorithms and multi-vehicle cooperative control.

· Develop digital twin simulation platforms for low-altitude economy based on GIS and 3D engines (e.g., Cesium), enabling real-time modeling and simulation verification of airspace environments and flight trajectories.

· Perform on-site flight tests in Hong Kong and across Shenzhen-Hong Kong border; conduct data collection, analysis and algorithm iteration to verify system safety and performance, and support technology commercialization.

· Prepare technical proposals, test reports and documentation; participate in intellectual property (patents, software copyrights) applications to support the internationalization of the Company’s low-altitude technologies.

· Liaise with internal and external partners and regulatory authorities; participate in cross-border R&D projects, deliver regular progress reports and achieve project milestones.
