About Rivian:
Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.
As a company, we constantly challenge what's possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.
Role Summary:
In this position within Platform Architecture team, you will work closely with Software, Hardware, System, and SoC groups to develop the infrastructure to enable state-of-the-art machine learning models used in ADAS systems to be efficiently performing and running on the SoC. This infrastructure enables HW-SW codesign and would result in developing efficient building blocks for state-of-the-art machine learning models. You will be collaborating with other cross functional teams in understanding the workloads, enabling running workloads on HW and help define the future enhancements to hardware and models.
Responsibilities:
Take various versions of ADAS perception models (development, production, prototype) and map them to SoC; this would involve graph and operator transformations and making the new graph perform efficiently on SoC.
Create/Improve exiting QAT infrastructure.
Quantize models to different data precisions (4b, 8b, 16b) while preserving originally FP32 accuracy
Compress models using structured sparsity schemes
Qualifications:
BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or relevant field
Expertise or prior work experience in one of the following areas: Quantization of Neural Networks, Sparsity of Neural Networks, Training of Neural Networks
Exposure to Transformers and LLMs is a plus.
Experience with ADAS specific workload dealing with Nuscenes, Waymo datasets is a plus.
Demonstrate proficiency in C++, Python, Numpy, Pytorch framework.
Excellent debugging and analytical skills, written and verbal communication skills, and a strong team player
Pay Disclosure:
Salary Range for California Based Candidates: $(phone number removed) - $(phone number removed) (actual compensation will be determined based on experience, location, and other factors permitted by law).
Benefits Summary: Rivian provides robust medical/Rx, dental and vision insurance packages for full-time employees, their spouse or domestic partner, and children up to age 26. Coverage is effective on the first day of employment, and Rivian covers most of the premiums.
