Mountain View, California, United States Gatik Full time
About the Role:

We're seeking a talented AI Research Scientist to join our team at Gatik, a leader in autonomous middle mile logistics. As a key member of our AI Research team, you will play a vital role in developing ML models that accurately predict the behavior of surrounding agents and plan and select optimal trajectories for our AVs.

You will work closely with our team of experts in AI, robotics, and software engineering to push the boundaries of what's possible in autonomous trucking. Your expertise in agent behavior prediction and AV planning will be instrumental in designing and refining the ML algorithms that enable our trucks to safely navigate and operate in complex, dynamic environments.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop novel algorithms in agent behavior prediction and AV planning in interactive scenes
  • Conduct research on combined prediction and planning models
  • Work on Reinforcement Learning and other approaches to Planning beyond Imitation Learning
  • Develop robust prediction and planning metrics for assessing the behavior systems in closed loop
  • Push forward the cutting-edge AI closed-loop methods for use in the Autonomy Stack for both Planning and Selection
  • Test ML models in simulation to ensure robust performance and generalization
  • Analyze model performance and identify areas for improvement, iterating on design and implementation to enhance quality and reliability
  • Participate in the AI Research team activities targeting internal education and external scientific image
  • Work closely with the Production teams to push your idea into the deployment
  • Propose new ideas and build on top of state-of-the-art knowledge

Requirements:

  • Ph.D. in one or more of the following areas: Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, or a related field
  • At least 1-3 years of hands-on experience in one or more of the following areas: Autonomous Driving (preferable), Robotics, or Deep Learning in general
  • At least 1-3 years of research experience in one or more of the following areas: Reinforcement Learning (preferable), Behavior Prediction and/or Planning, Statistics, Probability theory
  • Deep knowledge of Autonomous Driving Behavior including Reinforcement Learning modeling, different forms of guidance, sampling optimization, probability estimation, Imitation vs Reinforcement Learning specifics, Planning vs Selection, Prediction vs Planning, Open vs Closed loop, Closed-loop training, Hierarchical Planning, Transformer Decoding
  • Experience with simulation environments for autonomous vehicles, such as CARLA, Waymax, or similar platforms
  • Strong foundation in data structures, algorithm design, and complexity analysis
  • Expertise in programming languages and tools critical for high-performance computing in Python/C++ and machine learning including Deep Learning frameworks like TensorFlow/PyTorch
  • Demonstrated ability to publish research findings in any of the top-tier technical journals and conferences (ICRA, CoRL, IROS, ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS, AAAI, IJCAI, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, etc.)
