Machine Learning Engineer • Senior

Who you are

You have 5+ years of experience in software engineering with a strong focus on machine learning infrastructure — you've designed and implemented scalable systems that support complex ML workflows. Your expertise in Python and TensorFlow allows you to develop and optimize machine learning models effectively, ensuring they perform at their best in real-world applications. You are familiar with containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration tools such as Kubernetes, which you have used to deploy and manage ML models in production environments. You understand the intricacies of model optimization techniques, including quantization and distillation, and have a track record of improving model performance while maintaining efficiency. You thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to push the boundaries of autonomous technology. You are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace and are eager to contribute to a culture of psychological safety.

What you'll do

In this role, you will be responsible for optimizing Nuro's autonomy stack using advanced optimization techniques — you will collaborate with autonomy engineers to validate and deploy large language models that enhance the capabilities of self-driving robots. You will develop and maintain a world-class model compiler framework, ensuring that the models are not only efficient but also reliable for safe navigation on the road. Your work will involve writing high-quality software that integrates seamlessly with existing systems, increasing the confidence in the vehicle's operational capabilities. You will also engage in designing robust and scalable model pipelines that support the entire machine learning lifecycle, from data ingestion to model deployment. As part of the Autonomy ML Infrastructure team, you will have the opportunity to influence the direction of Nuro's technology and contribute to the mission of making autonomy accessible to all.
