You will have a unique opportunity to work with a high-caliber and fast-paced team which consists of experienced researchers and engineers in Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Robotics with a track record of previous products and top-tier publications. 

You will play a critical role in building and improving a technology that will be used by millions of trucks. In this role, you will design and implement complex machine-learning systems. You will have the opportunity to build and/or improve ML/computer vision systems. Identify where models and algorithms are failing, debug issues, propose solutions, implement, and deploy them on millions of trucks. You will also get exposure to large-scale ML infra and scaling that facilitates large amounts of data to train, test, and validate computer vision systems.

What You’ll Do: 

• Evaluate and improve the performance of existing models and algorithms already in production
• Prototype and implement ML modules for complex AI features
• Build and optimize CV/ML algorithms for real-time performance so they can run on our embedded platform, i.e., the next-gen AI dashcam
• Write proficient Python and C++ code to build and improve CV algorithms, ML services, training, model compression, and porting pipelines
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams such as Embedded, Backend, Frontend, Hardware, QA, and the broader AI team to ensure the development of robust and sustainable AI systems
• Build automated deployment, validation, and active learning pipelines.

What We’re Looking For: 

• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field. A Master’s degree is a plus. 
• 5+ years of machine learning and/or data science experience
• Solid mathematical foundation in Deep Learning, Machine Learning, and optimization approaches.
• Strong experience in Python or C++
• Experience in the following tools and technologies is a plus. AWS (SageMaker, Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS), CI/CD, Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes.
