In this role, you will...

  • Define on-vehicle architecture for producing the core tracking results from the Perception stack.
  • Assist with the implementation of core tracking results from the Perception stack 
  • Work with both the model and data teams to develop a high-performance, efficient model that can run on a vehicle.
  • Work with Perception data, both on the input and output of machine learning models

Qualifications

  • BS or higher in Computer Science or a related degree
  • Familiarity with modern, Sparse-BEV Joint Detection and Tracking models.
  • Hands-on experience with production ML pipelines, including dataset creation, metrics, and optimization
  • Experience in Python, PyTorch, or a related ML framework

Bonus Qualifications
