Job Description

• Own the model roadmap for Road & Lane Detection within the Model Dev ML org — from concept through production-grade model maturity. • Research, design, and train advanced neural architectures (e.g., multi-camera BEV transformers, LiDAR-vision fusion models, topological lane graph networks) to detect, segment, and model road structures and lane connectivity. • Lead data strategy for this domain — defining data curation, labeling policies, and active learning pipelines to capture long-tail scenarios (e.g., occlusions, complex merges, construction zones). • Develop robust metrics and evaluation frameworks for lane and road geometry accuracy, temporal consistency, and cross-domain generalization. • Advance foundational capabilities such as self-supervised pretraining, synthetic-to-real adaptation, and temporal modeling for road and lane understanding. • Drive large-scale experiments — designing, running, and analyzing results from distributed training workflows and ablations to identify scalable improvements. • Collaborate with other model dev/perception teams to ensure model coherence and interface consistency. • Mentor engineers and scientists, setting best practices for model training, evaluation, and code quality. • Stay ahead of the research frontier by evaluating and adapting emerging techniques (e.g., BEV-based large models, vectorized map prediction, lane graph transformers) to production-grade perception.

Job Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience developing deep learning models for perception or computer vision at scale.
  • M.S. or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • Deep expertise in semantic and instance segmentation, BEV modeling, or scene topology estimation.
  • Strong understanding of lane and road geometry modeling, camera calibration, and sensor projection.
  • Proficiency with Python and modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, Lightning).
  • Experience with distributed training pipelines, experiment management, and large-scale dataset handling.
  • Proven leadership in guiding technical roadmaps, mentoring engineers, and driving measurable model improvements.

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)
  • AD+D and Life Insurance
