What are the responsibilities and job description for the Machine Learning Engineer II - AV Labs position at Uber?
About The Role
Uber is launching AV Labs to accelerate the autonomous technology ecosystem. We're building out a high-velocity team of multi-disciplinary experts to turn real-world operations into high-quality data for our autonomous partners. This team is focused on the hardest problem in AV today: unlocking real-world, long-tail driving data. Autonomy is now a data race-and Uber has an edge: We collect rare, real-world driving data at a scale and capital efficiency no one else can match.
As a ML Engineer, you will be at the forefront of Physical AI , building advanced autonomy algorithms and models to add rich semantics to our massive driving data. You will be responsible for the development and implementation of the latest machine learning techniques that enables better data mining, deep scene understanding, and causal modeling of ego vehicle behavior.The ideal candidate will be able to identify complex edge cases, provide robust algorithmic solutions, and set a high technical excellence bar.
