You'll take models from our ML team and make them run fast, efficiently, and reliably on embedded GPUs-using TensorRT, custom CUDA kernels, and low-level systems engineering. Beyond inference, you'll profile and optimize the entire onboard software pipeline to meet hard real-time deadlines. This is a rare chance to bridge ML and embedded systems for production autonomous freight, with the freedom and responsibility that comes with a small team tackling a massive problem., * Optimize and deploy neural network models for onboard inference using TensorRT and custom CUDA kernels * Profile and reduce end-to-end latency across the autonomous driving stack-from sensor ingestion to control * Build and maintain the onboard C++ and Rust software infrastructure, including real-time data pipelines, inter-process communication, and hardware abstraction layers * Implement model quantization, pruning, and other optimization techniques to maximize throughput on embedded GPU platforms * Collaborate with ML engineers to ensure models are designed for efficient deployment, and with vehicle systems engineers to meet real-time safety constraints, As part of the interview process, we may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to compare your qualifications and experience to the job description. A human reviews all AI output and makes a final hiring decision. Humble Robotics does not rely on the output to make any employment decisions. Some applicants may have a legal right to opt-out of the use of AI as part of our interview process.
