Lead ML Engineer - Mapping

Job description

The Autonomy Mapping & Localization group's mission is to provide our vehicles with world-class spatial intelligence, semantic and topological mapping, and state estimation to model and navigate complex urban, suburban, and rural environments. We are looking for a Lead ML Engineer to join our team and architect the next generation of our mapping and localization stack. As the Lead ML Engineer for Mapping, you will be at the forefront of this mission, building the production-grade semantic and topological foundation that allows our vehicles to understand and navigate the world's most challenging roads at scale.
