Engineer​/Senior Engineer - Perception Capabilities

Our teams are made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers, and doers. Together, we can change the world.

• Contribute to the design, development, and improvement of perception components that support downstream modules within the autonomy system.
• Help analyze perception system performance to identify areas for improvement and participate in efforts to address them.
• Work with teammates to explore creative approaches to "long-tail" challenges—for example, experimenting with synthetic data, data mining techniques, or new model architectures.
• Depending on your background and interests, you may also help optimize and
  deploy models to the vehicle, ensuring they operate within the constraints of our onboard hardware and meet our functional requirements and interface specifications.
• Interface with systems and safety engineers, test engineers, and data analysts to ensure appropriate requirements, test coverage, and performance metrics.

• Master's or Ph.D. in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field; or equivalent industry experience.
• Solid understanding of fundamental deep learning concepts and computer vision techniques.
• Experience building, training, or evaluating neural networks.
• Proficiency in Python and familiarity with libraries like PyTorch or similar.
• Exposure to software engineering fundamentals - version control, code reviews, testing, and collaborative development.
• Clear communication skills and willingness to ask questions, share ideas, and work with others.

• Previous experience with sensor fusion and/or previous exposure to the AV industry.
• Experience shipping a "real" product and balancing ongoing support with next-generation innovation.
• Exposure to safety-critical products or components.
• Strong programming skills in C++ and/or CUDA programming.
• Experience with TensorRT and model quantization.
