This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions ABOUT APPLIED INTUITION Applied Intuition builds the toolchain that enables the world's leading physical AI programs to develop, validate, and deploy these complex systems safely. Our software is used by top automotive OEMs, trucking companies, and robotaxi programs to accelerate the path from research to production. ABOUT THE TEAM The Insights platform is the data and analytics layer underlying Applied Intuition's physical AI development tooling suite. We own the full stack — from ingestion and query infrastructure to data discoverability, dataset management, and next-generation agentic analytics. Our platform gives autonomy engineers complete visibility and control over the data their workflows produce: sensor logs, simulation runs, model eval results, KPIs, and more. It gives users the flexibility to analyze and operationalize that data quickly, minimizing any technical barriers. We're building the next-generation Insights platform for physical AI — one that scales alongside the fleets, simulation environments, and end-to-end models that define where the industry is headed. WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON Ingestion & Data Reliability — The entry point for all data on the platform. The correctness, freshness, and reliability of everything downstream depends on getting this right at scale across a diverse set of upstream sources. Query Critical Path — The infrastructure every single query in our product flows through. Latency, correctness, and stability here has a direct, visible impact on every user of the platform, every day. Dashboarding & Autonomy-Native Visualization — The analytics surface that users actually see. Beyond standard BI, we build visualizations and integrations specific to physical AI: geographic views, log and simulation playback, and domain-specific renderers that don't exist off the shelf. Agentic Analytics — The frontier of what Insights becomes. Building the architecture that lets an AI understand a user's intent, reason about the underlying data and physical AI concepts, and deliver answers, charts, and dashboards entirely through natural language. Data Discoverability & Governance — The connective tissue that lets users and agents understand what data exists, where it came from, and how to use it. Without this, scale becomes a liability rather than an asset. Dataset Lifecycle Management — The operational foundation that keeps the data lakehouse healthy and performant as data volumes grow by orders of magnitude. Data Wrangling & Transformation — The tools that give users agency over their own data — enabling custom preparation and ETL flows without ever leaving the product. WHY THIS ROLE This is a high-ownership role on a small team building the infrastructure that the entire autonomy development workflow depends on. You'll have end-to-end ownership of systems used daily by engineers at some of the most sophisticated autonomous vehicle programs in the world — at a stage where your architectural decisions will shape the platform for years to come. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 3+ years of industry experience - A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent - Experience building production data infrastructure, platform engineering, or distributed systems - Experience with large-scale data processing and query execution at production scale - Strong backend engineering fundamentals: API design, service reliability, query optimization, distributed system trade-offs, telemetry and monitoring - Experience with data lakehouse architectures, table formats, or query federation is a strong plus - Comfort operating across the stack — from storage and query engines to APIs and product-facing tooling - Familiarity with building for observability: metrics, alerting, and operational health of data systems - Experience developing, testing, and shipping software with coding agents - Bonus: experience with LLM tool use, developing agentic workflows, or semantic layers for natural language interfaces - Bonus: exposure to multimodal data, geospatial systems, or AV/robotics tooling Compensation at Applied Intuition for eligible roles includes base salary, equity, and benefits.

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 About the Role We are looking for a performance engineer who specializes in making large-scale machine learning workloads fast and cost-efficient in the datacenter. This role is focused on distributed training runs spanning many nodes, and high-throughput batch inference sweeping petabytes of real-world autonomy logs for auto-labeling, data mining, ground-truth generation, and evaluation. The optimization target here is not tail latency on a vehicle - it is throughput, cluster goodput, and cost per unit of data processed. A training run that wastes 30% of its GPU-hours on stalled data loaders, or an offline inference sweep that takes a week instead of a day, directly slows down how fast the whole company can iterate. You will own the gap between what our fleet of accelerators is theoretically capable of and what our workloads actually achieve: profiling across the stack, finding where the compute and the wall-clock time actually go, and closing the difference. You will work at the intersection of accelerators, ML frameworks, and large-scale data infrastructure, partnering with the teams who own each layer to land wins that show up in training time-to-result and offline processing cost. At Applied, we encourage all engineers to take ownership over technical and product decisions, closely interact with users to collect feedback, and contribute to a thoughtful, dynamic team culture. At Applied, you will: - Profile and optimize distributed training end to end - data loading and preprocessing, augmentation, kernel execution, gradient communication, and checkpointing - Optimize large-scale offline and batch inference over petabyte-scale sensor logs: batching and scheduling strategies, quantization and low-precision execution, graph optimization, and accelerator saturation across long-running sweeps - Establish roofline and performance models for our workloads, quantify the gap between achieved and theoretical performance, and stack-rank optimization opportunities by impact and effort - Improve multi-node scaling efficiency: sharding and parallelism strategies, collective communication, interconnect utilization, and memory-bandwidth and kernel-fusion bottlenecks - Drive cluster goodput - reduce GPU idle time from input pipeline stalls, storage and network I/O, scheduling gaps, stragglers, and failure recovery on long-running jobs - Build the benchmarking, observability, and regression-detection tooling that keeps performance from silently degrading as models and code evolve - Collaborate with engineers across functions to solve complex data and compute problems at scale - Contribute to a team culture that values effective collaboration, technical excellence, and innovation WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS: - Bachelor's degree or higher in computer science or adjacent fields. - 1 or more years of hands-on experience with ML performance engineering: profiling, roofline analysis, throughput optimization, and root-cause investigation in production systems. - 5 or more years of overall experience - Experience with distributed multi-node training at scale (FSDP, DeepSpeed, Megatron, NCCL, or equivalent), including diagnosing scaling inefficiency as node count grows - Deep familiarity with GPU or accelerator performance concepts - memory bandwidth, kernel launch overhead, occupancy, quantization, collective communication - Experience with high-throughput or batch inference systems (NVIDIA Triton Inference Server, TensorRT, ONNX Runtime, Ray, or similar) - Fluency in Python and proficiency in C++ or another systems language - Excellent debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills - A deep understanding of machine learning foundations, and the ability to develop technical solutions for problems with no established playbook Nice to have: - GPU kernel development experience: CUDA, Triton, CUTLASS, or hand-tuned attention implementations - Experience with profiling toolchains such as Nsight Systems/Compute, PyTorch Profiler, or perf - Experience with GPU scheduling and orchestration on Kubernetes, Slurm, or Ray, including multi-tenant cluster utilization - Experience with fault tolerance and elastic training for long-running jobs - checkpointing strategy, straggler mitigation, preemption recovery - Familiarity with autonomy or robotics data (ROS, OpenCV, multi-sensor log formats) Don’t meet every single requirement?

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 ABOUT THE ROLE Applied Intuition builds the software infrastructure for autonomous vehicles across passenger cars, trucking, mining, and defense. Our Self-Driving Systems (SDS) team develops production-grade autonomy stacks deployed on real vehicles across multiple continents, from highway trucking in Japan to urban ADAS in the United States and Europe. We are looking for a Technical Lead Manager to own the perception model at the core of our autonomy stack. This is a single combined model: shared backbone, multi-task heads, serving every SDS program from the same codebase. The same model runs on a passenger car in Los Angeles, a truck in rural Japan, and an offroad vehicle in the Philippines. Different sensor configurations, different road geometries, different weather distributions, one model. You will lead the team that trains, evaluates, and ships this model, and you will be hands-on in the architecture and training decisions that drive its performance. AT APPLIED INTUITION, YOU WILL: - Own the perception model end-to-end: architecture, training, evaluation, and deployment. The core challenge is building a model that generalizes across geographies, road types, sensor setups, and environmental conditions without per-vertical forks. - Drive a camera-first perception strategy. The goal is to progressively reduce dependencies on HD maps and lidar. How to get there is part of the job. - Lead training and iteration cycles hands-on. You will be in the data, the eval dashboards, and the failure analysis. When perception regresses in a new geography or road type, you own understanding why and fixing it. - Own model performance across the full deployment surface: highway, urban, residential, ramps, complex intersections, poor weather, hilly terrain. You care about on-vehicle driving outcomes, not just offline metrics. - Manage the model lifecycle from training through quantization and deployment on embedded compute, including device-specific optimizations. Close the gap between what the model does offboard and what it does on the vehicle. - Work directly with OEM customer programs to understand sensor configurations, target ODDs, and performance requirements. Translate these into model architecture and data strategy. - Recruit, develop, and technically lead a team of perception engineers. Set high technical standards and create a culture of rigorous experimentation and measurement. WE’RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS: - Bachelors degree in any field, or equivalent combination of education and work experience. - 5+ years in ML/deep learning for perception or 3D scene understanding. Deep hands-on experience training and deploying vision models at scale. - 2+ years managing a perception team, with ability to both set direction and contribute to architecture and training decisions directly. - Experience building production perception systems, especially camera-only or camera-first solutions. - Track record deploying perception models to embedded hardware under real-time latency and compute constraints, including device-specific optimizations. - Strong software engineering in Python and C++, comfortable across the stack from training code to onboard inference integration. - Experience scaling perception models across multiple geographies, sensor setups, or vehicle platforms. NICE TO HAVE: - Deep familiarity with transformer-based architectures for 3D perception, BEV representations, multi-task learning, and dense prediction. - Familiarity with occupancy-based scene representations, sparse query-based architectures, or temporal aggregation approaches. - Experience reducing or removing map dependencies in perception systems. - Background in autolabel pipelines, data quality monitoring, or data flywheel design for perception. - Experience with closed-loop simulation for perception model evaluation (neural sim, log sim, scenario-based testing). - Experience at an AV company that has shipped perception to production.
