Job Description

NVIDIA in Santa Clara, CA is seeking a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to design, train, and deploy end-to-end autonomous driving models while building data-centric pipelines and data flywheels that accelerate learning from real-world data. This onsite role involves close collaboration across researchers and engineers to translate cutting-edge research into robust, production-ready ML systems for autonomous driving. The position offers a salary range of USD 184,000 to 356,500 per year and targets candidates with advanced degrees and substantial experience in modern deep learning and data-centric methods.

Responsibilities

Designing, implementing, and training large-scale end-to-end driving models.
Driving the data flywheel: identifying failure cases, specifying data collection and labeling needs, and iterating models to close real-world performance gaps.
Building, curating, and maintaining high-quality multimodal datasets (e.g., video, sensor, language/action traces) tailored for end-to-end autonomous driving.
Developing and applying data-centric learning algorithms such as active learning, curriculum learning, automated hard-example mining, outlier and novelty detection, and semi/self-supervised methods.
Exploring and productizing new data sources including simulation, synthetic data, and world-model-based generation/augmentation to improve coverage and robustness.
Designing and implementing agentic data workflows that automate data discovery, labeling, evaluation, and retraining to maximize development velocity.
Fostering collaborative partnerships with researchers and engineers, transforming innovative research into robust, industrial-strength machine learning models.

Requirements

A PhD with 4+ years, an MS with 6+ years, or a BS (or equivalent experience) with 8+ years of relevant experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
Strong background in modern deep learning, including transformer-based architectures, video modeling, and multimodal VLM/VLA or foundation models.
Hands-on experience training and deploying deep learning models on real-world datasets: data preprocessing, distributed training, evaluation, debugging, and iterative improvement.
Practical experience with data-centric methods such as active learning, curriculum learning, outlier/novelty detection, or large-scale sample mining.
Proficiency in Python and at least one major deep learning framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX), plus solid software engineering practices (testing, code review, CI/CD).
Demonstrated ability to collaborate across teams, drive designs from prototype to production, and communicate clearly with technical and non-technical partners.
Track record of leading complex cross-team projects, setting technical direction, and making critical technical decisions that impact multiple teams or products.
