ADAS Machine Learning Engineer

About the Role

We are looking for a highly skilled Machine Learning Engineer to join our ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and Autonomous Driving (AD) Data team. This role focuses on developing cutting-edge machine learning models that process and fuse multimodal sensor data—camera, LiDAR, radar—for 2D/3D perception and scene understanding. You will help align temporal data, deploy scalable models, and automate pipelines for training and evaluation.

 

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models for sensor fusion, temporal alignment, and perception in ADAS/AD use cases.
• Integrate models into production workflows and debug performance issues related to misalignments, detection accuracy, and false positives.
• Build and maintain pipelines using MLFlow or similar tools to automate training, validation, deployment, and monitoring.
• Work with large-scale data collected from camera, LiDAR, radar, and vehicle telemetry to train and evaluate models.
• Collaborate with annotation, data platform, and front-end teams to ensure seamless integration of perception models.
• Drive improvements in object detection and scene understanding, both in 2D (camera) and 3D (LiDAR/Radar) domains.
• Utilize methods such as Ray Casting, 3D point cloud segmentation, and tracking to enhance detection performance and reduce latency.
• Contribute to optimizing active learning and sampling strategies to improve model generalization across edge cases.

 

Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience in automotive, robotics, or a related field, specifically in Perception or ML for ADAS/AD.
• Proven experience building models using multimodal sensor data (camera, LiDAR, radar).
• Deep understanding of object detection, sensor fusion, spatial-temporal modeling, and ray casting techniques.
• Proficiency in Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, and deep learning frameworks.
• Experience with MLFlow, Kubeflow, or similar ML pipeline platforms.
• Hands-on experience with deploying models to production, debugging, and profiling for performance optimization.
• Solid understanding of 3D geometry, transformations, and calibration in the context of autonomous vehicles.
• Familiarity with tools such as ROS, OpenCV, Open3D, and visualization libraries.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working with HD maps, semantic segmentation, and tracking in autonomous driving environments.
• Familiarity with AWS/GCP for distributed training and inference pipelines.
• Experience collaborating with front-end and systems teams to integrate perception output into user-facing applications.
