As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer, you will serve as a technical leader defining the roadmap and architecture for the machine learning systems that power our data discovery and model improvement lifecycles. Rather than focusing on a single specialized domain, you will leverage your broad ML expertise to architect massive, scalable systems, from multimodal representation learning and active learning loops to hyper-efficient production inference. You will own system-level architecture, lead multi-quarter, multi-person initiatives, and partner across the engineering organization to unblock teams and influence department-wide technical strategy. By establishing robust processes and mentoring others, you will ensure ML platforms act as a reliable, mission-critical engine for the autonomy stack. What You'll Do: Define Technical Strategy & Roadmaps: - Develop and execute multi-quarter, high-impact technical roadmaps for core ML systems - Inform leadership to guide reprioritization aligned with OKRs and KPIs Architect System-Level Solutions: - Own system-level architecture for complex ML products - Design scalable frameworks for massive data mining and optimized real-time inference across GPU/CPU clusters Drive Cross-Functional Execution: - Lead multi-person projects across teams to completion - Influence partner team roadmaps to solve shared problems and build alignment Elevate Engineering Excellence: - Establish standards for ML system design, code quality, testing and deployment - Deliver processes to proactively address issues and participate in incident response planning Operate as a Generalist Expert: - Apply deep learning, representation learning, active learning and generative AI techniques to complex problems - Unblock teams facing unprecedented technical challenges Mentor and Lead: - Coach senior and junior engineers - Lead architectural reviews and contribute to engineering culture through documentation and tech talks What We're Looking For (Must-Haves): - BS in Computer Science, Machine Learning or related field (or equivalent practical experience) - 8+ years of hands-on ML engineering experience with large-scale ML systems - Experience with multimodal foundation models in production systems (camera, LiDAR, radar, text) - Demonstrated technical leadership across multi-quarter initiatives - Expert-level Python and experience with PyTorch, TensorFlow or JAX - Strong software engineering fundamentals including system design, CI/CD and containerization - Experience deploying ML models in AWS, GCP or Azure and optimizing for latency and throughput - Proven ability to mentor peers and drive consensus across teams Bonus Points: - MS or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning or related field - Background in autonomous driving, robotics or real-time decision-making systems - Experience with large-scale ML data mining, active learning loops and representation learning - Familiarity with multimodal learning, sensor fusion or large foundation models - Experience with model serving tools such as TF Serving, Triton or TorchServe - Experience leading severity reviews or establishing incident response processes for ML platforms Work Arrangement: Hybrid schedule with in-office time in Boston, Pittsburgh or Las Vegas, or fully remote. Compensation & Benefits: Salary range: $205,000—$272,500 USD (base salary). Additional compensation may include bonus or company equity. Eligible employees may participate in benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401k with company match, health savings accounts, life insurance and pet insurance.
