Job Description At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We’re turning today’s impossible into tomorrow’s standard —from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features. Every day, our products move millions of people as we aim to make driving safer, smarter, and more connected, shaping the future of transportation on a global scale. Role Overview: Are you passionate about accelerating the future of autonomous driving? Join the Embodied AI Infra Foundation team at General Motors, where we build the critical infrastructure that powers every machine learning engineer working on our cutting-edge Autonomous Driving models. From foundational models to state-of-the-art optimization, our work is at the heart of our mission. About the team: Our goal is simple: dramatically accelerate the machine learning development cycle, freeing our engineers to focus entirely on enhancing the safety and performance of the car, rather than managing infrastructure. We are committed to delivering products that are performant, easy to use, and exceptionally reliable. Your success will be measured by the success of our partner teams who rely on our robust systems to build the world's most advanced driverless vehicles. What you'll do: Lead the design, implementation, and deployment of scalable platforms and tools that drive machine learning model training and evaluation workflows across GM. Own complex technical projects end-to-end, making key architectural decisions and technical trade-offs. You will be a core contributor to team planning, design reviews, and code quality. Take a holistic view of projects, considering their impact across multiple teams, and proactively drive technical prioritization. Collaborate closely with partner teams to ensure maximum benefit from the systems we build. Help shape our team through technical interviewing with high, well-calibrated standards, and play an essential role in recruiting. Mentor and onboard junior engineers and interns, helping them grow their careers. What you'll bring: 3+ years of experience building large-scale distributed systems/applications or advanced ML Applications. Proven track record of building robust frameworks with high-quality, long-lasting APIs. Deep understanding and practical experience with machine learning algorithms. Expertise in building reliable, highly performant, and cost-efficient systems leveraging modern cloud infrastructure. Hands-on experience with the entire ML development lifecycle and MLOps practices. Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively across multiple teams and organizations. Proficiency working with containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes). A strong passion for self-driving technology and its transformative potential. Exceptional coding skills in Python or C++. BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Math, or equivalent practical experience. Exceptional candidates may also have: Experience with distributed training methodologies. A background in optimizing model training performance. Experience scaling model training across large clusters of GPUs/CPUs or other accelerators. Familiarity with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc. A strong grasp of performance profiling and state-of-the-art training optimization algorithms, including their performance characteristics and effect on model convergence. Experience with advanced build systems (Bazel, Buck, Blaze, or Cmake).
