From Zoox’s original posting
The Perception team is pioneering the development of a multi-modality foundation model to drive the next generation of autonomous system intelligence. As a Perception Deployment Engineer, you will focus on bringing highly efficient, production-ready large-scale models to our on-vehicle stack. We are looking for experts with hands-on experience in compressing, accelerating, and deploying complex computer vision or foundation models for power- and thermal-constrained vehicle SOCs. You will optimize the ML models, write custom CUDA kernels, and build highly concurrent inference code to ensure real-time, deterministic execution on edge devices. In this role, you will:: • Design and develop production-level, low latency, and memory-safe C++ and CUDA code for real-time perception algorithms on vehicle systems. • Optimize large-scale models (Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion models, LLMs, VLMs) using advanced quantization (PTQ, QAT), pruning, mixed-precision inference frameworks. • Architect and implement model conversion and compilation pipelines using TensorRT for edge deployment. • Perform rigorous parity checking, accuracy recovery, and latency benchmarking between PyTorch frameworks and…
