Description
NVIDIA is tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU serves as the intelligence behind computers, robots, and autonomous vehicles that perceive the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. We pioneered a supercharged form of computing loved by the most demanding computer users in the world - scientists, designers, artists, and gamers. It’s not just technology though! It is our people, some of the brightest in the world, and our diverse company culture that make NVIDIA one of the most fun, innovative and dynamic places to work in the world! At the center of NVIDIA's culture are our core values like innovation, excellence and determination and team, that guide us to be the best we can be. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, encouraging environment where everyone is motivated to perform at their highest level. Come join the team and see how we can make a lasting impact on the world.
What you’ll be doing:
Develop test strategy and use cases/scenarios for L2++, L3 & L4 Autonomous driving products based on customer needs, traffic regulations, certification standards, and industry guidelines.
Define test strategy and execution plan on Vehicle Platform.
Formulate test cases and define critical performance metrics to ensure compliance with functional and safety requirements.
Close collaboration with different stakeholders to define the KPIs and evaluate the product progress by closing the loop with test data/results.
Establish strong multi-functional relationships with collaborators across engineering, safety, and product teams.
Scale and innovate the product ODDs by designing campaigns and roadmap.
Lead L2++, L3 & L4 Driving Product and retrofitting, managing end-to-end processes to advance testing and validation schedules.
Spearhead data triage and root cause analysis, driving issue resolution and generating comprehensive test reports.
Promote and cultivate a strong systems engineering approach across the organization.
What we need to see:
MS or PhD in Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
8+ years proven experience in ADAS Technology, Vehicle Testing , system analysis, data analysis, and software architecture.
Proficiency in programming languages commonly used in AV development and testing (e.g., Python, C++) and familiarity with data query and analysis tools.
Awareness of functional safety (ISO 26262), Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF / ISO 21448), and V-model validation methodologies.
Strong leadership and interpersonal skills, with the ability to drive alignment across large organizations.
Proven understanding of trade-offs between End-to-End deep learning approaches, classical modular perception/planning stacks, and associated validation and test strategies.
Deep understanding of autonomous vehicle sensor suites (LiDAR, Radar, Camera, Ultrasonic) and their specific failure modes, edge cases, and validation requirements.
Collaborate with senior engineers and cross-functional teams to define and enforce rigorous testing and validation standards.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Experience contributing to a launched L2++, L3/L4 autonomous vehicle program.
Hands-on experience with testing strategy for ADAS, large-scale datasets, data analytics workflows.
Innovation by tools/out of the box thinking to resolve the problem statement.
Passionate and self-motivated about autonomous technology.
