About the Role We are a team of high-output generalists where ML and systems engineering converge to push autonomy performance forward. As a Senior Perception ML Data Infrastructure Engineer, you will own the critical bridge between our autonomous vehicle hardware, our human labeling operations, and our ML models. You will take ownership of our core native perception data platform. This is not a standard web development role; the stack is deeply adjacent to our core robotics infrastructure. You will be dealing with massive, dense 3D point clouds at a scale that pushes the boundaries of industry state-of-the-art, alongside complex sensor parsing, pipeline propagation, and rigid performance constraints. You will operate in highly ambiguous environments, inheriting complex systems, establishing strict API boundaries, and building the "good enough, fast enough" infrastructure that guarantees our ML models learn from high-quality data.

About the Role We’re a team of high-output generalists where ML and systems engineering converge. This is not a "run the models" role. We reason from first principles about why a perception model learns what it learns, close the gaps that cap its performance, and raise the bar on the data and evaluation loop that drives autonomy. Your work will directly impact how autonomous systems understand rare scenarios, adapt to global geographies, and scale safely. About the work You’ll solve autonomy’s hardest data challenges through applied ML and systems rigor: Diagnose why perception models underperform on the long tail, and turn that into targeted data and training priorities. Design eval metrics and regression detection that tell us whether a model is ready. Curate and clean training data for segmentation and occupancy; hunt the data problems that silently cap performance. Run controlled ML experiments and ablations; cleanly sepa
