Machine Learning Engineer - Prediction and Planning
Foster City, CA
Zoox
Zoox is a purpose-built autonomous vehicle designed for riders, not drivers. Learn more about the Zoox robotaxi and the future of ride-hailing.
The Offline Driving Intelligence team is responsible for developing Foundation Models for prediction and planning, applying them both off-vehicle to provide ML capabilities to simulation and validation and on-vehicle to influence driving models. Our team collaborates closely with the Planner team to advance overall vehicle behavior. We also work closely with our Perception, Simulation, and Systems Engineering teams to accelerate our ability to validate our driving performance.
As a Prediction and Planning Machine Learning Engineer you will work on the bleeding edge of the industry, developing novel machine learning pipelines and models to predict the behavior of other agents in the world and planning the best course of action for the ego vehicle.
