What you'll do

  • Formulate and iterate upon the performance metrics that organize our engineering efforts and guide progress toward commercial success
  • Design experiments and targeted off-road measurements to ensure that we deliver product requirements to customers while maintaining safety and performance
  • Investigate factors in model training and inference leading to bottlenecks in functionality and performance, identifying and validating hypotheses for unlocking improvements

What they're looking for

  • 3+ years experience working in a Data Science role.
  • Fluent in querying and building large datasets, writing production-level SQL for use in data-transformation pipelines.
  • Prior experience designing robust real-world experiments (e.g. A/B) and critically evaluating test-statistics
  • Foundations in the fundamentals behind statistics: testing appropriate distributions, testing the assumptions behind frequentist stats
  • Proficient in using a statistical scripting language and data science/ML packages (e.g. python such as pandas, sklearn, statsmodels, scipy or R such as dplyr, caret, stats)
  • Well-versed in summarising, visualising and communicating findings in an accessible and compelling way
  • Track record of influencing team direction through your findings
  • A bias towards deriving actionable insight that can be used to drive prioritisation and strategy for others.
  • Comfortable working asynchronously across time zones with cross-functional partners
  • You are deeply curious about building something new and relish the idea of helping to define AV2.0 and how we build it.

Nice to have

  • Practical experience with machine learning (e.g. PyTorch). Passion to take research ideas to production.
  • Track record of promoting statistical rigour and experimental best practices in your prior roles.
  • Prior experience using causal inference/econometric techniques and bayesian methodologies for hypothesis testing.
  • Prior experience using large datasets with distributed computing (e.g. spark, hadoop or other map-reduce tech)
  • Experience working in a fast-moving tech company or startup.
