Senior ML Engineer, 3D Reconstruction for Autonomy

Decisive Point; Sunnyvale (CA); On-site; USD 180,000 - 260,000; Full time

Job summary

Applied Intuition, Inc. is seeking a senior machine learning engineer to advance neural reconstruction for its Neural Simulation product. You will transform real-world driving data into high-fidelity simulation environments and scale reconstruction for large fleets.

You will collaborate with Infra, Autonomy and Research to deliver end-to-end solutions and own critical components. The role requires deep expertise in 3D computer vision, graphics and ML, with a track record of shipping ML products

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience developing and shipping ML or computer vision systems.
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, physics, robotics, or equivalent.
• Strong hands-on experience with modern learning-based 3D reconstruction techniques (e.g., 3D Gaussian Splatting, NeRFs).
• Solid foundation in multi-view geometry, camera models, and differentiable rendering.
• Proficiency in Python and PyTorch, along with C++ and/or CUDA.
• Proven ability to turn research ideas into robust, production-quality software.
• Strong problem-solving skills and comfort with ambiguity.

Responsibilities

• Advance learning-based reconstruction methods at the core of the product (e.g., 3D Gaussian Splatting, NeRFs) to improve fidelity, robustness, and scalability.
• Push limits of neural reconstruction for large-scale, dynamic driving scenes (dynamic actors, scene editing).
• Explore and productionize feed-forward reconstruction approaches for scale.
• Define and build evaluation metrics, benchmarks, and validation workflows for fidelity and sim-to-real gap.
• Work closely with customers to understand pain points and implement solutions in Neural Simulation.
• Collaborate with Infra, Autonomy, Research and other product teams to deliver end-to-end solutions.
• Take ownership of critical technical components and influence architecture and product decisions.
