About the Role

We are seeking a Staff Machine Learning Engineer interested in the development of end-to-end models that unify perception, prediction, and planning in a single learning system. This role is ideal for someone excited by the challenge of scaling models that learn from vast sensory data to enable autonomous driving.

Responsibilities

  • Guide the architecture, implementation, and deployment of the Large Driving Model (LDM).
  • Support perception tasks (e.g., object detection, onboard map detection, scene understanding) and downstream decision-making and closed-loop autonomy.
  • Develop technical strategy and architecture for end-to-end autonomous driving models.
  • Develop multi-modal, multi-task transformer-based systems that support closed-loop autonomy.
  • Build training and evaluation pipelines at scale across petabytes of real-world and simulated driving data.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams across perception, planning, simulation, and ML infrastructure.
  • Drive alignment between model capabilities and real-world deployment constraints (latency, robustness, validation).
  • Publish internal technical guidance and mentor engineers across autonomy ML.

Requirements

  • B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience building and deploying large-scale ML systems.
  • Deep understanding of foundation models, self-supervised learning, and world models in robotics or simulation.
  • Strong software engineering background, with fluency in Python and C++.
  • Experience training and evaluating transformer models or end-to-end autonomous agents.
  • Familiarity with real-time inference systems and autonomous vehicle constraints.
  • Proven leadership in driving ML projects from research to production.
