We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions
As the data engine team, our goal is to provide a central data and machine learning platform that can be used across all verticals of the company. We’re looking for generalist engineers that want to build the foundations of a new workflow that spans:
Data ingestion from a production fleet
Data processing and storage (TBs/car/day)
Labeling infrastructure
Machine learning infrastructure
This group has a massive scope to define how product verticals across the company are deployed at scale for our customers given data and machine learning infrastructure is at the heart of the autonomy problem. We’re still very early in development so if you are interested in the “0-1” stage of building up a new team that interacts with teams across the company, this is a good fit.
Design and build large-scale data platforms to support our AI research and autonomy stack development, handling petabytes of multimodal sensor data from real-world driving scenarios
Work on data curation and tagging platforms that enable efficient dataset discovery, labeling workflows, and quality assessment across diverse driving conditions
Build high-performance data processing systems using modern distributed computing frameworks to transform raw sensor data into training-ready formats
Use the following technologies: Apache Spark, Apache Hudi, Trino, Apache Kafka, Flyte, Kubernetes, Python, Golang, Java
A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent
2+ years of professional experience
Strong backend engineering experience
Problem-solving skills and experience working with cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments
Hands-on experience with modern data stack technologies including Apache Spark, Hudi, Trino, Kafka, or similar distributed data processing frameworks
Knowledge of data lake architectures, streaming systems, and workflow orchestration platforms like Flyte
