Mission Summary:
The Behavior Understanding and Evaluation team at Motional is dedicated to comprehending and assessing the intricate behavior of the Motional Vehicle. To prepare for unprecedented scale, it's paramount that we leverage automated algorithms to thoroughly understand and evaluate our vehicles' performance, both in real-world deployment and within simulated environments.
We aim to employ cutting-edge machine learning techniques in our evaluation processes, ensuring we can scale effectively to meet Motional's ambitious goals. Our collaborative approach extends across various teams, providing critical insights and actionable metrics to those developing the onboard software and enhancing the rider experience. We are responsible for building and operating robust, large-scale machine learning and data systems, alongside sophisticated simulation workflows and insightful diagnostic tools. By combining expert human judgment with advanced machine learning models, we generate essential training and evaluation data for the Motional driver.
We are seeking passionate researchers and software engineers to join us in building production-grade machine learning evaluation systems for autonomous vehicles - people who are driven to transform complex data into measurable progress toward a safer, smarter transportation future.
