The Active Prediction Integration team is responsible for the development of a unified prediction and planning architecture, by integrating ML-based and first-principles-based models. It is a highly cross-functional team that collaborates with planning, prediction and behavior ML, and perception engineers to critically influence robot behaviors. You’ll be part of a passionate team dedicated to enabling Zoox’s rider-first experience by making the autonomous robot safer, smarter and more comfortable.
Together with the team, you will advance the state of the art in prediction and decision-making. We are looking for engineers with experience in developing and integrating advanced ML models in safety-critical production environments. If you enjoy learning new AI technologies and embrace the challenges of evolving prediction and planner architectures, we would like to hear from you.
Responsibilities
- You will work closely with Prediction and Planner to integrate advanced ML models and develop first-principles based safeguards, to ensure trustworthy prediction and decision making.
- You will inform and guide the development of new ML models and should be willing to dive deep and address issues in the model and data pipelines.
- You will design interfaces between prediction and planning, creating abstraction layers that facilitate modular integration of various machine learned components within the planning architecture.
- You will create principled algorithmic improvements to specific areas of driving behavior and implement those changes in our code base.
- You will facilitate the collaborations between the prediction data/modeling teams and the planning and control teams in order to deliver architectural changes to the system.
