    Description

    Who are we?

    Oxa is enabling the transition to self-driving vehicles through an initial focus on the most commercially advanced sector; the autonomous shuttling of goods and people.

    We are home to some of the world's leading experts on autonomous vehicles, creating solutions such as Oxa Driver, equipping vehicles with full self-driving functionality; Oxa MetaDriver, using Generative AI to accelerate and assure the safety of deployments; and Oxa Hub, a set of cloud-based offerings for autonomous fleet management. Our technology is being deployed across the UK and the U.S, and we're partnering with a fast-growing ecosystem of operators, vehicle OEMs and equipment makers serving autonomous transportation globally as it advances.

    Based in Oxford, and with offices in Canada and the U.S, Oxa was founded in 2014 and is growing rapidly (350+ 'Oxbots' to date). Our purpose is to change the way the Earth moves, through an uncompromising focus on safety, efficiency and explainability of our AI approaches. The company has attracted $225 million from leading investors so far, with $140 million raised in the last Series C funding round in January 2023.

    Your Team

    You will join a growing team of computer science and robotics experts leveraging machine learning, data and cloud infrastructure to build and deploy powerful on-vehicle reasoning capabilities. Your work will enable Oxa DriverTM to plan and execute sophisticated, safe driving behaviours scalably across all of our customer domains.

    Your Role

    As our Senior Engineer (Reasoning ML), you will take a leading role within your team to research, develop and deploy machine learning models enabling new behavioural capabilities and improvements in Oxa DriverTM, while remaining aligned to business needs and long-term architectural strategy. You will also actively participate in operational support for your team, ensuring the root causes of operational issues are identified and resolved, and drive improvements to product quality, customer experience, and maintainability.

    You will:

    • Take a leading role within your team to research, develop and deploy state of the art machine learning models and architectures in support of behaviour planning and decision making for autonomous vehicles.
    • Create and curate datasets for training and validation of machine learning models.
    • Design and develop high quality inference APIs, and support integration of deployed models into Oxa DriverTM.
    • Build cloud tooling and infrastructure in support of experimentation, evaluation and deployment workflows.
    • Design and implement metrics for model validation and continuous monitoring in production.
    • Engage with team members and colleagues throughout the business to create an environment that supports collaboration and mutual understanding.
    • Contribute to hiring and onboarding by defining role responsibilities and requirements, leading interviews, engaging in recruiting outreach for your team, and mentoring and developing new team members.

    Requirements

    What you need to succeed:

    • Degree in Computer Science, Robotics or a related field (e.g., Engineering, Physics, Mathematics).
    • Previous years relevant professional experience in industry or academia.
    • Experience developing deep learning models for Prediction, Decision Making or Planning for autonomous vehicles.
    • Fluency in Python and working knowledge of C++.
    • Experience with modern deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
    • Proven record of leading and delivering projects as part of a team.
    • Effective technical communication and leadership skills.
    • An appreciation for the role of safety, security and ethics in robotics and AI.

    Extra kudos:

    • PhD or MSc in Computer Science or Robotics.
    • Relevant publications or talks at industry conferences or in journals.
    • Familiarity with open benchmark datasets for autonomous vehicles (e.g., Waymo, nuScenes/nuPlan, Argoverse, Level 5, etc.)
    • Experience developing and fielding autonomous systems.
    • Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform.

    The Candidate Journey: Multi-Step and Two-Way

    No-one wants to feel like a square peg in a round hole, so this process is designed to give you every chance to get the measure of us, and us of you. The various stages give you every opportunity to show your unique strengths and qualities, and enables each of us to establish if we're a good fit for the other.
