Staff Machine Learning Engineer, End-to-End Autonomy
Actively Hiring
Full-time Posted about 2 months ago
Role overview
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 system. This role is ideal for someone excited by the challenge of scaling models that learn from vast sensory data to enable autonomous driving. Ideal candidates have experience with Supervised Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and/or LLMs.
As a member of the Autonomy team, you will guide the architecture, implementation, and deployment of the Large Driving Model (LDM). This model will support not only decision-making and closed-loop autonomy .
Responsibilities
- check_circle Developing technical strategy and architecture for end-to-end autonomous driving model
- check_circle Developing multi-modal, multi-task transformer-based systems that support closed-loop autonomy
- check_circle Building training and evaluation pipelines at scale across petabytes of real-world and simulated driving data
- check_circle Collaborating with cross-functional teams across perception, planning, simulation, and ML infrastructure
- check_circle Driving alignment between model capabilities and real-world deployment constraints (latency, robustness, validation)
- check_circle Publishing internal technical guidance and mentoring engineers across autonomy ML
Basic qualifications
- 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
Preferred qualifications
- Prior work on end-to-end autonomous driving architectures (e.g., imitation learning, behavior cloning, world models)
- Experience with sensor fusion (LiDAR, camera, radar) in a learned mode
