About the role

  • Drive the development of embodied foundation models and vision-language-action architectures that unify multimodal perception with robotic control.
  • Prototype and refine ML models that leverage VLA architectures to improve decision-making and reasoning for autonomous vehicles through imitation and reinforcement learning.
  • Utilize vision-language models and generative techniques (such as world models) to improve the model's understanding of complex driving scenarios.
  • Partner with perception, robotics, and systems engineering teams to integrate VLA research into the broader autonomous stack and validate models in closed-loop environments.
  • Engage in high-level technical brainstorming, share insights across the AI Research org, and contribute to the academic community through top-tier conference publications.

Requirements

  • Currently pursuing or in the process of obtaining a Masters in Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
  • Solid understanding of modern machine learning techniques, especially deep learning architectures (e.g., transformers, LLMs, VLMs, generative models, multimodal learning).
  • Proficiency in Python and ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
  • Research experience in AI/ML, demonstrated through coursework, academic projects, or publications.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative mindset.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills.
  • Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment.
  • Able to work fulltime, 40 hours per week
