Key Responsibilities

• Assist in the development and maintenance of our automated, distributed pipeline for training, evaluating, and deploying machine learning models.
• Support the design and development of our scalable ML infrastructure, with opportunities to learn and work with technologies like Kubernetes (K8s) and Ray.
• Help implement and maintain the metrics infrastructure that allows for model introspection and performance evaluation.
• Contribute to the deployment of models to our vehicles and learn to assess their performance using key metrics.
• Collaborate with and learn from our Machine Learning teams to improve tools and processes across the entire ML development lifecycle.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field.
• Solid programming skills in Python.
• Foundational understanding of deep learning concepts and eagerness to work with frameworks like PyTorch.
• Familiarity with software engineering principles and best practices.
• Genuine passion for self-driving technology and a strong desire to learn.

Highly Desired Experience

• Some exposure to PyTorch.
• Previous projects or coursework involving the design or training of neural networks.
• Introductory understanding of distributed computing concepts; any familiarity with K8s or Ray is a plus.

Bonus Points

• Background in autonomous vehicle development.

Additional Notes

• No Large Language Model (LLM) experience is required.
