Responsibilities

  • Define and execute the technical roadmap for the end-to-end autonomous-driving data engine, including fleet-data-loop automation, active learning, auto-labeling, simulation, and MLOps tooling.
  • Oversee architecture, development, and testing across fleet triggers, cloud data lakes, model repositories, and automotive target hardware.
  • Collaborate with data engineering, cloud infrastructure, and embedded runtime SOC teams to scale the integrated AI machinery ecosystem.
  • Establish rapid-evaluation frameworks for benchmarking, active-learning selection, and continuous integration of multimodal AI solutions.
  • Convert fleet logs and research prototypes into production-grade training and auto-labeling pipelines optimized for automotive hardware.
  • Implement automated validation, SIL/HIL scenario testing, and continuous feedback loops aligned with automotive safety standards.
  • Mentor and lead AI scientists and software engineers and establish technical excellence in automated data engines and large-scale AI machinery.

Requirements

  • Master’s degree or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, AI, or a closely related autonomous-systems field.
  • 10+ years of software development and system architecture experience in ADAS or autonomous-driving applications.
  • Industry experience taking AI-based L2+ or L3/L4 autonomous-driving systems into mass production.
  • Deep knowledge of end-to-end AI architecture, model-training algorithms, active learning, fleet edge triggers, and automated data curation.
  • Technical mastery of PyTorch, TensorFlow, Transformers, Occupancy Networks, and reinforcement or imitation learning.
  • Expertise in model compression, quantization, and deployment of neural networks on embedded automotive SOCs.
  • Experience architecting cloud-native distributed training infrastructure, high-throughput data-processing pipelines, and MLOps or CI/CD platforms for petabyte-scale fleet datasets.
  • Preferred experience with offline high-precision auto-labeling, multimodal foundation models, 3D perception fusion, generative AI engines, closed-loop SIL/HIL simulation, and synthetic scenario generation.
  • Strong programming proficiency in Python and C++.
  • Deep understanding of ISO 26262 and ISO 21448 / SOTIF as applied to deep-learning systems.
  • Exceptional technical leadership, mentoring, and cross-functional communication skills.

Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision plans.
  • Health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts.
  • 401(k) retirement plan with an attractive employer match.
  • Wellness programs, life insurance, and long-term disability insurance.
  • Paid time off and parental leave.
  • Employment is contingent upon successful completion of a drug screen and background check.
