Engineer - Deep Learning/AI

Role Overview

We are seeking an Algorithm Engineer with strong skills in perception-driven algorithm development to join the Algo Dev team. You will own the end-to-end design and implementation of perception algorithms contributing to the AI production stack for next-generation vehicles.

Key Responsibilities

• Benchmark state-of-the-art algorithms and devise novel, compute-efficient perception-based algorithms.
• Design and implement robust computer vision algorithms for diverse scenarios, including changing exposure, variable lighting conditions, and human articulations.
• Debug complex issues, conduct root cause analysis, and ensure the performance, robustness, and reliability of perception algorithms across the AI production stack.
• Collaborate with globally distributed cross-functional teams to deliver robust and scalable AI algorithms.
• Document research work in compliance with AI process standards, including the EU AI Act and ASPICE ML Process.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Vision, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 1–2+ years of experience developing computer vision algorithms for real production-grade scenarios.
• Strong expertise in Python and libraries such as OpenCV, SciPy, and PyTorch.
• Knowledge of state-of-the-art CNNs and machine learning/deep learning model training using large-scale real and artificial datasets.
• Strong understanding of camera ISP pipelines, including exposure control, gain, white balance, image-quality parameters, and real-time environmental effects on algorithm performance.
• Knowledge of machine learning processes for algorithm development.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience delivering production-grade perception algorithms in the automotive domain.
• Strength in perception, computer vision, deep learning, vision-language models, or generative AI.
• Understanding of performance metrics, benchmarking, and error analysis for perception systems.
• Experience optimizing models for runtime performance, latency, memory footprint, and edge or embedded deployment constraints.
• Research publications in top-tier journals or conferences such as CVPR or ICCV, and/or automotive-domain patents.
• Experience developing algorithms for RGB, NIR, FIR, depth, or other camera modalities.
