Job summary

torcrobotics seeks a senior individual-contributor to own camera-based perception ML for autonomous long-haul trucking. You will shepherd perception problems from research to production, spanning model architecture, large-scale training, and integration into the autonomy stack.

You will design and deploy deep learning models for camera-based tasks, drive end-to-end development, and mentor junior engineers while collaborating with cross-functional teams to strengthen the autonomy system.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, or related field; 6+ years industry experience, or Master’s with 3+ years, or PhD with 1+ year.
• Track record of developing and deploying deep learning models for computer vision or perception systems.
• Strong Python and PyTorch programming skills, with experience writing production-grade ML code.
• Hands-on experience training and evaluating models on large-scale datasets in distributed compute environments.
• Solid grasp of modern perception architectures including CNNs, transformers, and multi-task models.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and deploy deep learning models for camera-based perception tasks (object detection, segmentation, depth estimation).
• Drive end-to-end model development from data curation to deployment in the autonomy stack.
• Write production-quality ML code powering scalable training, evaluation, and inference pipelines.
• Analyze model performance and iterate to improve robustness across diverse driving scenarios.
• Collaborate with data, perception, simulation, and validation teams to refine labeling and edge-case coverage.
• Improve tooling and infrastructure for experimentation and model iteration; mentor junior engineers.
