About the role

  • Lead ML Engineer developing neural networks for lane and route networking at May Mobility. Focus on architecture, design, and validation for autonomous technology solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the research, design, architecture, training and validation of advanced neural networks for vectorized mapping (e.g., MapTR), multi-camera BEV transformers, and multimodal fusion models to extract and model lane and route networks for both high-fidelity offline pipelines and real-time online mapping.
  • Architect, design, and implement a production-grade lane and route network mapping stack, ensuring high-performance integration with upstream and downstream modules like Perception, Behavior, Policy, and Prediction.
  • Drive major feature development from inception to deployment. This includes high-level architecture design, rigorous code reviews, automated testing, mentorship of junior engineers, and technical resolution.
  • Own the end-to-end data strategy for the mapping domain, specifically focusing on lane and route networks. You will define data curation, auto-labeling, synthetic data, and active learning pipelines to capture and resolve long-tail scenarios.
  • Develop robust metrics and evaluation frameworks for lane and route network accuracy, temporal consistency, and scaling across diverse Operational Design Domains (ODDs).
  • Work independently with cross-functional teams to translate complex autonomy goals into clear software and system requirements.
  • Collaborate with ML and Autonomy engineers to ensure the seamless deployment and validation of mapping features to the vehicle fleet.
  • Stay at the research frontier by evaluating, adapting, and innovating cutting-edge techniques, including online vectorized HD map construction, end-to-end mapping models, and vision/fusion Foundation Models to deliver production-ready solutions.

Requirements

  • Ph.D. or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field with a strong mathematical and engineering foundation.
  • 7+ years of industry experience developing and deploying ML/DL models for mapping or computer vision at scale.
  • Deep expertise in several of the following areas:
  • Vectorized mapping networks (e.g., MapTR), BEV-based scene representation, and temporal modeling.
  • Cross-modal calibration and fusion (e.g., Camera-to-LiDAR) within Bird’s-Eye-View (BEV) unified representation spaces.
  • Transformers or Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) applied to structured lane geometry and topological connectivity.
  • Lane-level topology and connectivity, intersection modeling, and lane/road network graph construction.
  • Computer Vision Foundations: Object detection, classification, segmentation, tracking, depth estimation, and 3D reconstruction.
  • Strong understanding of HD maps, including lane and road network geometry modeling, connectivity, and semantic attributes.
  • Expertise in ML/DL development using PyTorch or TensorFlow, including experience with distributed training, synthetic data generation, large-scale dataset handling, and data curation strategies.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++ with experience in modular software design and Linux-based development.
  • Proven leadership in guiding technical roadmaps, mentoring engineers, and driving measurable improvements in model performance and system reliability.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to lead technical discussions and align with cross-functional teams.
  • 10+ years of experience in ML/DL for autonomous driving or ADAS systems (desirable).
  • Experience with self-supervised and/or semi-supervised learning for large-scale representation learning (desirable).
  • Experience utilizing Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and/or Foundation Models for auto-labeling and long-tail (edge-case) detection (desirable).
  • Expertise in ML optimization for real-time products with limited compute (desirable).
  • A proven record of inventions and/or publication record at top-tier conferences (desirable).

Benefits

  • Comprehensive healthcare suite including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability plans. Domestic partners who have been residing together at least one year are also eligible to participate.
  • Health Savings and Flexible Spending Healthcare and Dependent Care Accounts available.
  • Rich retirement benefits, including an immediately vested employer safe harbor match.
  • Generous paid parental leave as well as a phased return to work.
  • Flexible vacation policy in addition to paid company holidays.
  • Total Wellness Program providing numerous resources for overall wellbeing
