Mission Summary

We are looking to add a talented Senior Software Engineer to our Autonomy Research team. You will help build state-of-the-art machine learning models for planning, decision making, and motion prediction. As a software engineer, you will help design, implement, and test machine learning models that drive our car, as well as related metrics, visualization, and data infrastructure. Your software engineering and data analytics experience will inform your pragmatic approach to making a more intelligent autonomous vehicle. Does this sound like you?

What you'll be doing:

  • Dive into data to understand a) how our car should drive, and b) how other road users (e.g., pedestrians, bicyclists, and other cars) interact with us
  • Help deploy ML models on our self-driving car
  • Relentlessly drive ideas from conception to on-car impact
  • Help implement and evaluate a variety of ML models (planning, motion prediction)
  • Define, implement, and visualize performance metrics
  • Build continuous learning pipelines to automate model improvement

What we're looking for:

  • BS in computer science, engineering, or applied math with 3+ years practical experience in data science, modeling, statistics, and analysis of large data sets
  • Fluency with Python, including standard scientific computing libraries
  • Experience working with large data sets
  • Experience using modern software engineering tools (e.g., version control, CI)

Bonus points (not required):

  • Experience using common Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms (e.g., for classification, regression, and clustering)
  • Experience developing autonomous vehicles or robots
  • Experience with C++

Why you should join us:

  • Publications and patents encouraged (e.g., https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.10298, https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.15004, https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.11810
  • Opportunity to contribute across multiple disciplines (perception, prediction, planning).
  • Speaking opportunities are encouraged and supported

(Colorado only*) Minimum salary of $172,020/year + bonus + equity + benefits
