About this role
As a Machine Learning Engineer focused on motion planning and prediction for autonomous vehicles, you will design, train, and deploy models that predict the behavior of other road users and make driving decisions. Your work will involve analyzing real driving data, optimizing models for real-time performance, and building evaluation frameworks to ensure safety and effectiveness in real-world scenarios. This role emphasizes hands-on experience with deployed systems in physical environments, rather than simulation or research.

Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Avride as an employer.
What you need
- Hands-on experience with behavioral or trajectory prediction, motion planning, or decision-making under uncertainty for autonomous vehicles or similar systems
- Experience deploying machine learning to real hardware under real-time constraints
- Strong Python and production experience with a modern deep learning framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX)
- Proficiency in C++ (or Rust) for performance-critical code
- Demonstrated ownership of a system from prototype through deployment
Worth weighing
- No salary listed
- Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S.; no relocation or remote work options available
- Emphasis on practical engineering work over advanced degrees or prior autonomous vehicle experience may appeal to hands-on engineers
