Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Torc Robotics is hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to develop and deploy camera-based perception models for autonomous trucks. The role owns end-to-end model development, improves model robustness and training pipelines, and integrates production-ready solutions into the autonomy stack.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and deploy deep learning models for camera-based perception (e.g., object detection, segmentation, depth estimation, scene understanding)
• Own end-to-end model development for scoped areas, from data curation and training to evaluation and deployment
• Write production-quality ML code to support scalable training, evaluation, and inference pipelines
• Analyze model performance across diverse driving scenarios, identify failure modes, and improve robustness and generalization
• Contribute to and improve large-scale training pipelines, including dataset preparation, distributed training, and experiment tracking
• Partner with data teams to improve dataset quality, including labeling strategies and coverage of edge cases
• Collaborate with perception, simulation, and validation teams to evaluate and integrate models into the autonomy stack
• Improve tooling, workflows, and infrastructure to accelerate experimentation and model iteration
• Contribute to model architecture decisions and technical discussions within the team
• Mentor junior engineers on implementation, debugging, and best practices

Skills

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, or a related technical field with 6+ years of industry experience, OR Master's degree with 3+ years OR PhD with 1+ years of experience
• Experience developing and deploying deep learning models for computer vision or perception systems
• Strong programming skills in Python and PyTorch, with experience writing production-quality ML code
• Experience training and evaluating models using large-scale datasets and distributed compute environments
• Solid understanding of modern deep learning architectures used in perception (e.g., CNNs, transformers, multi-task models)
• Experience debugging model behavior, analyzing performance metrics, and improving model reliability
• Ability to translate ambiguous problems into structured ML solutions and deliver independently
• Experience collaborating cross-functionally to integrate ML models into larger autonomy or robotics systems
• Experience in autonomous driving, robotics, or simulation-based ML systems
• Experience with multi-task learning or unified perception architectures
• Experience with large-scale data pipelines, distributed training systems (e.g., Ray), or experiment management frameworks
• Familiarity with camera calibration, geometric reasoning, or 3D perception from images (e.g., BEV, monocular depth, structure-from-motion)
• Experience deploying ML models into production or real-world robotics systems

Benefits

• A competitive compensation package that includes a bonus component and stock options
• 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for full-time employees
• 401K plan with a 6% employer match
• Flexibility in schedule
• Generous paid vacation (available immediately after start date)
• Company-wide holiday office closures
• AD+D and Life Insurance
