Latitude AI LLC, Detroit, Michigan, United States, 48228


Latitude AI (

lat.ai

) is an automated driving technology company developing a hands-free, eyes-off driver assist system for next-generation Ford vehicles at scale. We’re driven by the opportunity to reimagine what it’s like to drive and make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone.

When you join the Latitude team, you’ll work alongside leading experts across machine learning and robotics, cloud platforms, mapping, sensors and compute systems, test operations, systems and safety engineering –

all dedicated to making a real, positive impact on the driving experience for millions of people.

As a Ford Motor Company subsidiary, we operate independently to develop automated driving technology at the speed of a technology startup. Latitude is headquartered in Pittsburgh with engineering centers in Dearborn, Mich., and Palo Alto, Calif.

Meet the team:

The Offboard Models team is a group of highly skilled and experienced professionals who specialize in cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning technology. Together, we collaborate to create auto-labeling and data augmentation solutions for autonomy consumers including perception and mapping.

On the auto-labeling front, the primary focus is on developing multi-view, multi-sensor deep learning models capable of leveraging the maximal sensing suite on our development and consumer vehicles to perform a wide range of tasks such as 3D object detection, lane line detection and scene segmentation.

On the data augmentation front, the focus is on developing ML solutions for multi-view, multi-sensor dynamic scene manipulation including ego, actor and sensor edits. To achieve this goal, the team constantly stays up-to-date with the latest research literature and pushes the boundaries of what is possible. We are dedicated to developing cutting-edge ML algorithms and models that can help improve the diversity of our datasets in a cost efficient manner.

What you’ll do:

Develop multi-view, multi-sensor dynamic scene manipulation models for increasing data diversity

Read literature, analyze raw data, and design state-of-the-art solutions

Collaborate with perception experts and experienced roboticists on algorithm design, prototyping, testing, cloud deployment, and productization

Develop clean and efficient software for scene manipulation modules interfacing with consumer modules such as perception and resimulation

Build and maintain industry-leading software practices and principles

Show initiative and be a valued team member in a fast-paced, innovative, and entrepreneurial environment

What you'll need to succeed:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field and 4+ years of relevant experience (or Master's degree and 2+ years of relevant experience, or PhD)

Expert-level knowledge and experience in machine learning, with a proven track record of developing and deploying deep learning solutions using PyTorch, Tensorflow, or similar frameworks

Experience in developing perception systems using sensors such as Camera, Radar, and LiDAR

Experience in developing Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) and/or Gaussian Splatting based 3D scene reconstruction and manipulation systems

At least 4 years of development experience in Python/C++ environments

Nice to have:

Experience developing diffusion models and/or vision language models (VLM)
