Job Description

What you’ll be doing:

• Participate in the full machine learning development cycle, including data preprocessing, model training, evaluation, and deployment.
• Productionize and deploy our large perception model on edge devices with optimization techniques in mind (e.g. pruning, quantization)
• Optimize training with large data and distributed machines
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement scalable solutions and improvements
• Troubleshoot, debug, and optimize machine learning workflows for efficiency and performance.

What We’re Looking for:

• Bachelor’s Degree. Preferably Masters or Ph.D. in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Robotics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Physics or a related field; or equivalent industry experience
• 3+ years of experience with deep learning frameworks such as Pytorch
• Strong programming skills in C++, TensorRT, and/or CUDA programming
• Fluency in Python, including standard scientific computing libraries and Python bindings development experience
• Proven track record of developing and deploying perception systems for autonomous vehicles or robotics
• Advanced knowledge of software engineering principles including software design, source control management, build processes, code reviews, testing methods

Bonus Points:

• Experience with embedded systems and real-time optimization, especially in the autonomous driving industry

Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We’re driven by something more.

Our journey is always people first.

We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We’re creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it’s not only good for our business, it’s the right thing to do. 

Scale up, not starting up.

Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We’re driven to scale; we’re moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.
