Compensation Overview
$37.5 - $54.81Hourly
San Mateo, CA, USA
Position requires onsite presence in Foster City, CA.
- Experience with applying Transformer to solve Perception problems in Autonomous Driving, or solve CV/ML problems
- Experience with the design, implementation, training and evaluation of Large Multimodal Model (LMM), or Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM), or Large Language Model (LLM)
- Proficient in PyTorch model design, implementation, training and evaluation
- Proficient in Python programming
- Computer Science or Electrical Engineering background with PhD degree
- Experience writing C++ software
- GPU/CUDA programming experience
- Experience with model deployment with TensorRT
- Experience working with LiDAR, Camera and Radar data
- Experience in algorithm development for Autonomous Driving software
- Unify the existing PixelSpace Range View representation with the VoxelSpace Voxel representation into one architecture
- Produce more outputs: upgrade the model architecture to predict more outputs, including 3D object detection (3D bounding box with velocity), 3D panoptic segmentation (3D contour), occlusion, occupancy, scene flow and object attributes
- Consume multi-frame temporal information: upgrade the model architecture to consume multi-frame sensor data (multi-view images, and multi-frame Lidar and Radar point cloud)
- Add language and audio as additional modalities: upgrade the model architecture to take language and audio as input in addition to Vision, Lidar and Radar inputs
- Utilize sensor data sparsity to reduce training and inference latency in order to consume higher resolution images, increase detection range, and deploy the model to more camera views
Zoox is developing a fully integrated autonomous ride-hailing service with a vehicle designed specifically for self-driving. This vehicle features advanced sensors and AI systems for navigating urban environments and can comfortably accommodate up to four passengers. Unlike competitors that retrofit existing cars, Zoox's approach allows for optimized safety and efficiency. The company aims to enhance urban transportation while promoting sustainability through its fully electric vehicles.
