About The Role
Uber is launching AV Labs to accelerate the autonomous technology ecosystem. We're building out a high-velocity team of multi-disciplinary experts to turn real-world operations into high-quality data for our autonomous partners. This team is focused on the hardest problem in AV today: unlocking real-world, long-tail driving data. Autonomy is now a data race-and Uber has an edge: We collect rare, real-world driving data at a scale and capital efficiency no one else can match.
What You Will Do
Design and develop frontier techniques for autonomous vehicle research.
Lead the end-to-end model lifecycle and system architecture-from data and training through evaluation, deployment, and monitoring-across upstream and downstream dependencies.
Provide technical leadership through design reviews, mentorship, and hands-on execution.
Collaborate closely with engineering teams and product teams across AV Labs.
Publish and present original research at top-tier CV and ML conferences.
Basic Qualifications
PhD or MS with equivalent industry experience in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
3+ years of relevant industry experience in the field of autonomous vehicles and/or computer vision.
Strong understanding of how to connect cutting-edge modeling techniques to autonomous vehicles research in a scalable and reliable way.
Demonstrated technical contributions, such as publications at leading ML and CV conferences (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ICLR, NeurIPS) or comparable technical outputs.
Proficiency in Python and modern deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
Strong communication skills, with experience providing technical leadership through mentorship, design reviews, and cross-team collaboration.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with autonomous vehicle research.
Hands-on experience in training multimodal LLMs for autonomous vehicles or relevant computer vision systems.
Recent publications in one or more of the following areas: 3D perception & scene understanding, multimodal embedding, diffusion models, gaussian splatting, vision language action models, and world models.
For Sunnyvale, CA-based roles: The base salary range for this role is USD $171,000 per year - USD $190,000 per year.
You will be eligible to participate in Uber's bonus program, and may be offered an equity award & other types of comp. All full-time employees are eligible to participate in a 401(k) plan. You will also be eligible for various benefits.
Ready to Ride?
