About The Position
Intelligent machines powered by Artificial Intelligence computers that can learn, reason and interact with people are no longer science fiction. GPU Deep Learning has provided the foundation for machines to learn, perceive, reason and solve problems. Now, NVIDIA’s GPU runs Deep Learning algorithms, simulating human intelligence, and acts as the brain of computers, robots and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. We are now looking for an extraordinary Senior Perception Engineer to develop and productize NVIDIA’s autonomous driving solutions. As a member of our perception team, you will be driving E2E solutions for perception modules that are responsible for traffic signal understanding — including traffic lights, traffic signs, road markings, construction objects, and other traffic signals critical for driving without reliance on HD maps. You will be challenged to improve robustness and accuracy as well as efficiency of the solutions to fully enable autonomous driving anywhere and anytime.
Requirements
- PhD with 4+ years, MS with 6+ years, or BS (or equivalent experience) with 8+ years of relevant experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Hands-on work experience in developing deep learning and algorithms to solve sophisticated real world problems, and proficiency in using deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).
- Experience in data-driven development and collaboration with data and ground truth teams.
- Strong programming skills in python and/or C++.
- Outstanding communication and teamwork skills as we work as a tightly-knit team, always discussing and learning from each other.
Nice To Haves
- 2+ years of technical leadership demonstrating high technical and organizational complexity is a big plus.
- Proven expertise in developing generalizable perception solutions for autonomous driving or robotics using deep learning with cameras.
- Hands-on experience in developing and deploying DNN-based solutions to embedded platforms for real time applications.
- Proven expertise in deep learning backed up by technical publications in leading conferences/journals.
- Expertise with Visual Language Models, Transformers, BEV architectures, and modern traffic signal perception techniques.
- Experience in working on complex object detection and recognition problems is a big plus.
Responsibilities
- Designing end2end solutions for Perception and AV stack to enable traffic signal detections across various driving environments from complex intersections to rural roads to highways.
- Applied research and development of innovative deep learning models for traffic light detection, traffic sign recognition, road marking detection, construction object detection, text recognition, and other traffic signal tasks.
- Develop generalizable approaches to support diverse ODDs and Country/region expansion
- Drive and prioritize data-driven development by working with large data collection and labeling teams to bring in high value data to improve perception system accuracy. Efforts will include data collection prioritization and planning, labeling prioritization, labeling efficiency optimization, so that value of data is maximized
- Leverage data simulation and augmentation for solving extreme scenarios
- Productize the developed perception solutions by meeting product requirements for safety, latency, and SW robustness.
