Senior Engineer, Computer Vision/Machine Learning Semantic Mapping

Summary

Join Motional as a Computer Vision / Machine Learning (CV/ML) Software Engineer and contribute to the development of cutting-edge autonomous driving systems. You will design and implement automated semantic mapping solutions, work with various sensor data, and develop scalable software. Collaboration with internal teams on HD mapping and CV/ML models is crucial. The role requires a deep understanding of CV/ML techniques and experience in production software development. Prioritize safety in all design and implementation. This position offers a competitive salary and benefits package.

Requirements

• Masters or PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field
• 3+ years of experience shipping production software in robotics / graphics / mapping which cover topics in SLAM, geometric computer vision, point cloud processing and/or scene reconstruction
• Strong C++ or Python software engineering and algorithm skills including software design, source control management, build processes, code reviews, testing methods
• Deep understanding of CV/ML techniques, particularly integrating ML modules in production
• Ability to communicate and collaborate across multiple teams, researchers and engineers
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to learn

Responsibilities

• Design and implement automated semantic mapping solutions from ground up, taking ownership of complex challenges
• Work with point cloud, image, and other sensor data to aid in semantic mapping by applying state-of-the-art methods and techniques
• Develop and deploy scalable and efficient software in the cloud
• Collaborate with internal teams that focus on HD mapping and CV/ML models (e.g. SLAM, segmentation networks, object detection networks) to improve our semantic maps
• Understand how the maps are consumed and design metrics and tools to evaluate and validate our automated annotations
• Prioritize safety above all else in designing and implementing software solutions, ensuring the highest standards of safety in our autonomous driving efforts
