Senior Software Engineer, Perception MLActive$930K–$291K

The opportunity

We’re a team applying ML to push autonomy performance forward. As a Perception ML Engineer, you’ll develop and improve perception models, with ownership of modeling, training, and evaluation.

What you'll do

  • Improve scene understanding from real sensor data, including 3D and spatial representations

  • Generalize across sensor platforms, geographies, and rare driving scenarios

  • Meet requirements for model quality and onboard inference runtime

  • Applied ML Depth: Own model architecture, loss design, training, and experiments that deliver measurable perception improvements.

  • Collaborative Delivery: Partner with ML Data Infrastructure and autonomy engineers, contributing across the stack when needed while keeping primary ownership in modeling.

  • Develop and improve perception models, making choices about architecture,: representations, objectives, and training.

What they're looking for

  • Design controlled experiments and ablations to understand model behavior and validate improvements.
  • Diagnose model failures and distinguish limitations in modeling, supervision, training data, and optimization.
  • Collaborate with autonomy and infrastructure engineers to turn sensor data: and failure analysis into targeted model improvements.
  • BS in Computer Science, Robotics, Statistics, Physics, Math or another quantitative area.
