Senior Perception Engineer - Autonomous Vehicles

We are seeking an exceptional Senior Perception Engineer to develop and productize NVIDIA's autonomous driving solutions. As a member of our perception team, you will work on building world-class 3D obstacle perception solutions based on multi-sensor fusion, including cameras, ultrasonic sensors, and radar, to estimate high-resolution reconstruction of the world. The primary approach will be deep learning.

Responsibilities:

• Develop multi-sensor fusion based deep learning models for obstacle perception and fusion in complex driving environments.

• Conduct applied research and development of innovative deep learning and multi-sensor fusion algorithms to improve output accuracy of 3D obstacle perception solutions under challenging and diverse scenarios.

• Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of developed 3D obstacle perception solutions using large-scale benchmark data and improve them iteratively through KPI building and optimization.

• Productize developed 3D obstacle perception solutions by meeting product requirements for safety, latency, and software robustness, with a strong emphasis on production deep learning model development.

• Drive and prioritize data-driven development by working with large data collection and labeling teams to bring in high-value data to improve perception system accuracy.

Requirements:

• 10+ years of hands-on work experience in developing deep learning and algorithms to solve sophisticated real-world problems, and proficiency in using deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).

• Experience in multi-sensor fusion (cameras, ultrasonic sensors, radar) for perception tasks, particularly in high-resolution world reconstruction.

• Proven experience in production deep learning model development, including careful data verification, model architecture design, loss function engineering, and debugging ML models.

• Experience in data-driven development and collaboration with data and ground truth teams.

• Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++.

• Outstanding communication and teamwork skills.

• BS/MS/PhD in CS, EE, sciences or related fields (or equivalent experience).

Benefits:

• Equity eligibility

• Benefits package
