The Perception team builds the system which learns the spatial-temporal representation and their semantic meanings of the surrounding environment of the autonomously driving vehicle (ADV) i.e. the system that perceives the world around the car. We work jointly with downstream teams on the optimization and integration into the Waymo Driver. We conduct our own research to address real-world problems and collaborate with research teams at Alphabet. We have access to millions of miles of driving data from a diverse set of sensors enabling engineers like you to (1) develop methods for efficiently and continuously learning from large scale real-world data to (2) develop models and model training at scale to (3) analyze real-world behavior and develop systems for handling the complexities of interacting with the real-world and (4) optimize models for our onboard and offboard hardware.

In this hybrid role you will report to a Technical Lead Manager.

You will:

Apply machine learning techniques to build multi-modal sensor fusion architectures and spatial-temporal representation learners for object detection and tracking occupancy and semantic segmentation road understanding etc.

Develop scalable recipes for large data large model training running on Alphabets compute infrastructure create methods and recipes for pre-training and post-training.

Develop methods and recipes for distributed fine-tuning enabling multiple developers to simultaneously improve the model develop methods and recipes to avoid regression against a production system.

Develop and maintain model evaluation recipes and metrics for measuring and improving performance of pre-trained and fine-tuned models

You have:

Bachelors in Computer Science or a similar discipline or an equivalent amount of deep learning experience

3 years experience in Machine Learning and/or Computer Vision

Experience with Python

Experience with ML frameworks like PyTorch or JAX

We prefer:

MS or PhD Degree in Machine Learning Robotics Computer Science or a similar discipline

Publications at top-tier conferences like CVPR ICCV ECCV ICLR ICML ICRA IROS RSS NeurIPS AAAI IJCV PAMI

Experience with C
