Machine Learning Engineer - Perception Mapping

The Perception team at Zoox is fundamental to our autonomous vehicle technology, creating the understanding of the world for our self-driving robots. We enable safe and efficient navigation in complex environments through sophisticated detection, classification, and tracking systems.   As a software engineer on the perception mapping team, you will be a key contributor to Zoox’s online mapping initiative. You will design, train, validate, and integrate into the stack ML models that detect semantic map elements in the world. Your work will touch on all aspects of ML development, including data gathering, labeling, training, validation, and onboard integration. Your work will enable important milestones to scaling and autonomy capabilities and will be critical to the success of Zoox.
