Job description
Are you passionate about accelerating the future of autonomous driving? Join the Embodied AI team at General Motors. Our team is developing and deploying machine learning solutions that support safe and reliable autonomous vehicle behavior across real-world scenarios.
As a Staff ML Infra Engineer, you will drive the development of core systems that enable rapid dataset generation, training, evaluation, and iteration of our most advanced Autonomous Driving models. From enabling large foundational driving models to distilling multi-stage production deployed models, your goal will be to dramatically accelerate the machine learning development cycle from one modeling hypothesis to next.
You will deliver model training pipelines that are performant, easy to use, and exceptionally reliable. Your success will be measured by the velocity and impact of the ML models that rely on the scalable, intuitive, and high-performance training platforms you help create.
What you'll do:
- Lead the design, implementation, and deployment of scalable platforms and tools that drive machine learning model training and evaluation workflows across GM.
- Own complex technical projects end-to-end, making key architectural decisions and technical trade-offs. You will be a core contributor to team planning, design reviews, and code quality.
- Take a holistic view of projects, considering their impact across multiple teams, and across a longer timeline.
- Proactively drive technical prioritization. Collaborate closely with partner teams to ensure maximum benefit from the systems we build.
- Help shape our team through technical interviewing with high, well-calibrated standards, and play an essential role in recruiting.
- Mentor and onboard junior engineers and interns, helping them grow their careers., Company Vehicle: Upon successful completion of a motor vehicle report review, you will be eligible to participate in a company vehicle evaluation program, through which you will be assigned a General Motors vehicle to drive and evaluate. Note: program participants are required to purchase/lease a qualifying GM vehicle every four years unless one of a limited number of exceptions applies.
