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
