Develop and deploy machine learning solutions for autonomous driving, collaborating with cross-functional teams and mentoring engineers for technical excellence.
Description
At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We're turning today's impossible into tomorrow's standard -from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features. Every day, our products move millions of people as we aim to make driving safer, smarter, and more connected, shaping the future of transportation on a global scale.
The Data Scaling team owns the Data Flywheel for AV Foundation model development and successive fine tuning. It defines the composition of the data that is needed for the AV to learn behaviors at scale and deliver the driving behaviors necessary for the product success. The team owns the definition and processes for data quality across the data loop.
The team directly works on and delivers ML models to the product that successively go up the Data Scaling curves, thereby directly impacting AV product performance through smart use of data. As part of this work, the team builds scalable systems and pipelines that attempt to 10x the data used, its diversity and impact on the models with successive major releases. The team uses existing very large datasets that GM has access to internally as well as defines the next generation of highest value datasets that GM continues to collect - both from real driving by GM and retail fleets, but also synthetic sim-based datasets.
Why Join Us?
As a Senior AI/ML Engineer in the Embodied AI Data Foundations organization, you will develop and deploy machine learning solutions maximally leveraging multiple sources of data including real and synthetic datasets, directly impacting autonomous driving performance. You will contribute to designing and improving ML models that go up the data scaling curves and when deployed, support safe and reliable vehicle behavior across real-world scenarios.
You will collaborate closely with senior engineers and cross-functional teams to translate research and technical concepts into production-ready solutions while contributing to engineering best practices and delivery execution.
