About the role
- The annotations include 2D, 3D bounding boxes, classes, trajectories, lane lines, segmentations, depths, and high-definition map elements.
- Even if you don't meet 100% of the qualifications listed for this opportunity, we encourage you to apply.
Responsibilities
- Own the design, implementation, and deployment of offline 3D reconstruction, lane line detection, and automatic mapping/map creation systems that generate high-quality annotations on Cloud Services from logged sensor data (Cameras, Lidars, Radars, GPS/IMU).
- Lead lane line network reconstruction efforts, rebuilding topologically correct lane line graphs from noisy, partial, or conflicting detections across drives.
- Design, train, and iterate on lane line detection and creation models, pushing state-of-the-art performance and driving model architecture and training strategy decisions for the team.
- Develop methods for creating lane line maps in previously unmapped areas, and for detecting and propagating map updates as road geometry changes over time.
- Own pose correction for sensor data, and lead the diagnosis and mitigation of calibration and sensor errors (extrinsic/intrinsic miscalibration, drift, noise) that degrade reconstruction and mapping quality.
- Set technical direction and best practices for the team's lane line, mapping, and pose estimation pipelines, and lead architecture decisions with cross-team impact.
- Serve as technical lead on high-complexity projects, guiding and mentoring other engineers across multiple facets of project execution.
- Independently develop offline perception and mapping models or algorithms using disciplined software development processes, making recommendations for developing new code or re-using existing code, implementing version control, and maintaining documentation of created applications.
- Define and implement ingestion, data preparation, curation, and governance of large, multi-faceted data sets supporting analytics models and workflows.
- Scope of Influence: Expected to drive alignment across team and organizational boundaries. Sets technical direction, owns team technical solutions end-to-end, and is looked to as the authority for lane line, mapping, and pose estimation problems.
Requirements
- Strong, demonstrated background in lane line detection and creation, including hands-on experience with lane line network reconstruction and training lane line creation models.
- Proven experience creating lane line maps for previously unmapped areas, and handling ongoing map updates as road conditions and geometry change.
- Strong background in pose correction, with direct experience diagnosing and correcting calibration and sensor errors across camera, lidar, radar, and GPS/IMU systems.
- Development Tools & Eco-System (at scale) - Advanced proficiency in Python software development.
- GIS (Geographic Information Systems) experience.
Nice to have

Skills
- Also, VDI and cloud-based development environments, CI Systems (GitHub Actions), and Docker.
Compensation
- A competitive compensation package that includes a bonus component and stock options
Benefits
- Develop guidelines and standards for analytics and machine learning models, their deployment, and associated processes.
- Active Learning & Pseudo-labeling - Computer Vision, Deep Learning, Model training at an advanced level.
- Distributed machine learning frameworks - PyTorch, Lightning, Ray.
Company info
- At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
- 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.
- 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.
- Meet The Team:
- The Pseudo-Labeling team's goal is to create high-quality annotations on sensor data (images, point clouds).
- The annotations are then used by different downstream users - for example, perception teams use them to train various models, mapping teams use them to build and maintain HD maps, and simulation teams use them for generating new data.
- This role owns the hardest problems in the team's lane line and mapping stack and is expected to set technical direction across lane line reconstruction, map creation, and pose accuracy.
