Responsibilities

Design, train, and optimize deep learning models for core perception tasks—object detection, semantic and instance segmentation, and 3D scene understanding—using multi-modal sensor data (e.g., RGB-D)
Devise labeling strategies, and tooling for automated annotation and QA. Contribute to dataset curation, balancing, and advanced augmentation techniques to simulate real-world illumination, occlusion, and high-mix variation scenarios
Develop continuous monitoring frameworks to assess model performance and reliability in real-world and simulated environments. Implement uncertainty estimation and failure detection methods to support fallback and recovery strategies in dynamic, unstructured conditions
Conduct proof-of-concept experiments to evaluate new algorithms, tools, and methodologies in computer vision, simulation, and perception. Translate research insights into practical prototypes that can inform roadmap and architecture decisions
