Senior Engineer, Autonomy ML Systems

Motional is a leading autonomous driving company on a mission to make driverless vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. The role of Senior Engineer, Autonomy ML Systems involves evaluating machine learning subsystems and contributing to the design and assessment of autonomy software modules.

Responsibilities:

• Define, prototype, and validate advanced metrics that bring new insights to model performance evaluation for autonomy subsystems (mainly focused on perception, prediction, and planning)
• Assess coverage of existing training and testing, then curate test sets that sufficiently capture Motional’s intended deployment operational design domain, across many axes (agent types, interaction types, map/spatial, etc.)
• Evaluate machine learning model performance against these metrics and tests
• Assess system-level performance and subsystem contribution to system behavior through large-scale data analysis of on-road and simulation events
• Define performance requirements for autonomy subsystems, and supporting analyses required to establish these targets
• Coordinate subsystem-level evaluation with other system-level testing efforts across the systems team in support of the safety case and safety claims
