I am working with a revolutionary software-based ADAS Series E startup who are on a mission to create the first consumer-vehicle self-driving system which is safe and accessible to the general public. Their technology is based on a breakthrough bottom-up approach to training their neural networks which relies on a real-time understanding of universal physics, coupled with a varied and overlapping sensor array which lends itself specifically to the system in place. This role is situated within the core Model Engineering team.
Responsibilities
- Build, test and optimise robust L4 Deep Learning Algorithms for semantic understanding of visual scenes in front of the vehicle
- Develop metrics of evaluation to analyse and optimize real-world vehicle data
- Understand and solve non-linear 3D mathematics problems with open-ended solutions
- Place models through production, working cross-functionally with various teams such as Software, Perception and Engineering teams to fully integrate it into the vehicle
- Scaling your Neural Networks to adapt to different vehicles and scenarios
What We're Looking For
- Masters or PhD in Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Mathematics or some other related field
- 5+ years of professional experience working with real-world, physical data or live-stream data, including live sensor data, market models and physics engines
- Extensive experience developing and optimising Deep Neural Network Algorithms
- Familiarity with various computer vision areas such as SLAM, Teacher Tasks, LSTM, YOLO, Multi-Object Tracking and Semantic Segmentation
- Strong programming skills in Python or C++, functional programming is beneficial
- Fluency the core principals of mathematics and physics concepts to solve complex problems, 3D Modelling is a plus
- A track record of having brought models end-to-end through from conception to post-production
- Standout communication skills, and can work cross-functionally with a high skill team
- For Managers and Tech Leads: The ability to lead long-term strategy and work with leadership to build out teams and assign tasks, including hiring, firing and organizing teams
Compensation:
The compensation for this role consists of a base salary and pre-IPO equity, which the base salary is expected to range from $175,000 - $300,000. Various factors including the candidate's overarching experience will influence the base pay offered within the range. This salary range is reflective of a position based in San Francisco, CA. If authorization is granted to work outside of that area, geographic adjustment (according to a specific city and state) will be made.
