📋 Description

• Lead BEV model development: Define and execute the technical roadmap for BEV-based perception models across multiple tasks (e.g., detection, segmentation, road topology, and scene understanding). • Design advanced multi-modal architectures that fuse heterogeneous sensor data (camera, LiDAR, radar, HD maps) into unified spatial representations. • Develop foundational perception models leveraging BEV transformers, voxel-based encoders, or implicit scene representations. • Own large-scale training workflows — from data sampling strategies and augmentation pipelines to distributed training and hyperparameter optimization. • Advance model robustness and generalization, addressing long-tail conditions such as low visibility, occlusions, and rare scene configurations. • Establish evaluation frameworks for geometric accuracy, temporal stability, and cross-domain transfer performance. • Collaborate cross-functionally with sensor calibration, mapping, and fusion teams to ensure cohesive perception model interfaces. • Mentor and guide ML engineers, cultivating best practices in experimentation, code quality, and model validation. • Stay at the forefront of ML research, exploring self-supervised learning, large-scale pretraining, or foundation models for 3D perception.

🎯 Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in deep learning for perception, 3D vision, and/or autonomous systems • M.S. or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or related field (or equivalent practical experience). • Proven expertise in BEV modeling, 3D scene understanding, and multi-view fusion. • Strong background in multi-modal sensor fusion, particularly integrating camera and LiDAR data. • Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow. • Experience with large-scale data pipelines, distributed training, and experiment management systems. • Demonstrated leadership in driving ML model innovation and mentoring technical teams.

🏖️ Benefits

• A competitive compensation package that includes a bonus component and stock options • 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for full-time employees • 401K plan with a 6% employer match • Flexibility in schedule and generous paid vacation (available immediately after start date) • Company-wide holiday office closures • AD+D and Life Insurance
