At NVIDIA, we are seeking exceptional engineers to join our autonomous driving team to design, implement, and deploy cutting-edge end-to-end autonomous driving systems, running on NVIDIA chips in mass-production vehicles. Our strategy has evolved from AI 1.0 — building a driver from scratch — to AI 2.0 — teaching an intelligent agent to drive. This next phase leverages LLMs, VLMs, and VLAs to bring unprecedented reasoning, planning capabilities, and interactivity with the driving system to autonomous vehicles and general robotics. Let’s build the future of autonomy—together!
What You’ll Be Doing:
+ Design and train innovative large-scale models—including generative, imitation, and reinforcement learning—to improve the planning and reasoning capabilities of our driving systems.
+ Build, pre-train, and fine-tune LLM/VLM/VLA systems for deployment in real-world autonomous driving and robotics applications.
+ Explore novel data generati...
