Senior Software Engineer, Perception Architecture
On-sitePittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
Job Summary
Contribute to the technical direction of the Perception Architecture team by designing core machine learning components that enable the perception system to scale and reliably address complex, long-tail driving scenarios. Drive the initial implementation and prototyping of key architectural decisions, such as handling long tail challenges or long range detection, while improving model frameworks, architecture, and data pipelines to eliminate development bottlenecks. Lead challenging technical topics and build consensus across sister teams and stakeholders to ensure autonomy-wide alignment on novel approaches for perception problems not well represented in the literature.
Required Qualifications
- BS (with 4+ years of experience), MS (with 2+ years of experience), or PhD (with 1+ years of experience) in a perception-related field, such as Robotics, Computer Vision, or Machine Learning
- Extensive experience architecting, training, and evaluating deep learning models for challenging problem spaces
- Track record of driving applied research or engineering projects from conception and experimentation to successful productization
- Strong experience in software engineering, machine learning algorithm design, and building data/metrics pipelines for ML development
- Fluency in Python
- hands-on experience with C++
- Experience delivering detection, segmentation, tracking, or other perception solutions for real-time robotic applications
- prior experience in sensor fusion
Desired Qualifications
