About the role

  • You'll work at the intersection of perception, prediction, and planning, contributing to unified learning pipelines that operate in closed-loop environments.
  • This role focuses on owning meaningful portions of the E2E stack, improving model performance at scale, and driving iteration through data, experimentation, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • This is a hands-on engineering role focused on execution, iteration, and delivery.

Responsibilities

  • Own development and delivery of End-to-End ML models that map multi-modal sensor inputs (camera, LiDAR, radar, maps) to driving-relevant outputs (trajectories, cost functions, or intermediate representations)
  • Analyze model performance, identify failure modes, and drive data-driven improvements in robustness and generalization
  • Design and refine training pipelines, data workflows, and evaluation strategies to improve iteration speed and model quality
  • Collaborate closely with Perception, Prediction, Planning, and Simulation teams to ensure alignment across the autonomy stack
  • Support integration of E2E models into simulation and on-vehicle systems for closed-loop validation
  • Experience developing and deploying ML models for autonomous systems, robotics, or complex decision-making environments
  • Proven ability to debug model behavior, analyze performance metrics, and drive iterative improvements
  • Experience developing End-to-End or mid-to-end models for autonomous driving or robotics
  • A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners.
  • Now a part of the Daimler family, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.

Requirements

  • Experience with distributed training frameworks (e.g., Ray)

Compensation

  • $226,400 - $271,700 USD

Benefits

  • Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.
  • Perks of Being a Full-time Torc'r
  • Torc cares about our team members and we strive to provide benefits and resources to support their health, work/life balance, and future.
  • A competitive compensation package that includes a bonus component and stock options
  • 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for full-time employees
  • 401K plan with a 6% employer matchFlexibility in schedule and generous paid vacation (available immediately after start date)Company-wide holiday office closures
  • AD+D and Life Insurance
  • Contribute to model architecture decisions, including approaches such as imitation learning, reinforcement learning, transformers, and vision-language-action (VLA) models
  • Experience with vision-language models (VLMs) or vision-language-action (VLA) systems
  • Experience with reinforcement learning or imitation learning in real-world systems

Company info

  • At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
  • Meet the Team:
  • As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer - End-to-End (E2E), you will develop and scale learning-based systems that connect multi-modal perception inputs to driving behavior, enabling safe, efficient, and human-like autonomy for real-world freight operations.
  • Our culture is collaborative, energetic, and team focused.
  • We are also open to hiring Remote in the United States.
  • For this position, we are open to hiring in Ann Arbor, MI (U.S.) office work locations in a hybrid capacity.
