Description
The Prediction & Behavior ML team is responsible for developing machine learning (ML) algorithms that learn and predict behaviors from data, applying them both on-vehicle to influence driving behavior and off-vehicle to provide ML capabilities to simulation and validation. Given the tight integration of behavior forecasting and motion planning, our team collaborates closely with the Planner team to advance overall vehicle behavior. We also work closely with our Perception, Simulation, and Systems Engineering teams to accelerate our ability to validate our driving performance.
As an engineer working on Foundation Models and Generative Driving Scenarios, you will be responsible for developing advanced ML models that can serve as the foundation for various prediction and generation tasks within our autonomous driving systems.
In this role, you will:
- You will build multimodal foundation models that can be used as the backbone for a variety of ML tasks within the autonomous driving domain.
- You will develop new algorithms to apply these foundation models to generate realistic and diverse driving scenarios for our offline simulation and validation systems, improving the fidelity and diversity of our testing environment.
- You will leverage our large-scale machine learning infrastructure to discover new solutions and push the boundaries of the field.
- You will collaborate with engineers on Perception, Planning, and Simulation to solve the overall Autonomous Driving problem in complex urban environments.
Qualifications
- BS, MS, or PhD degree in computer science or related field
- Experience with training and deploying Deep Learning models
- Experience with production Machine Learning pipelines: dataset creation, training frameworks, metrics pipelines
- Fluency in C++ or Fluency in Python with a basic understanding of C++
- Extensive experience with programming and algorithm design
- Strong mathematics skills
Bonus Qualifications
- Conference or Journal publications in Machine Learning or Robotics related venues
- Prior experience with Prediction and/or autonomous vehicles or robotics in general
- Experience with training / fine-tuning multimodal foundation models
- Experience with training and evaluating generative models
- Experience with Reinforcement Learning
