• MSc/PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering or a related field with 5+ years of industry experience

• Strong foundation in machine learning and deep learning, with emphasis on spatiotemporal modeling and trajectory forecasting

• Proficiency in Python and/or C++, with experience in ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow

• Hands-on experience with motion prediction models (Transformers, LSTM, GNN etc.)

• Familiarity with multi-modal sensor fusion and tracking systems

• Solid understanding of vehicle dynamics, traffic flow modeling, and interaction-aware prediction

• Experience optimizing and deploying models for real-time inference on embedded systems

• Strong problem-solving skills, ability to rapidly prototype, and track record of delivering production-quality models

• Familiarity with planning and control pipelines, and how prediction interfaces with downstream modules

• Experience with simulation tools

• Nice to have: Experience in ADAS or autonomous driving motion prediction systems

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Opportunity to collaborate with and learn from industry-leading professionals in the automotive domain.
