  • Translate the generated scenarios into the standardized formats required by the company’s existing simulation engine.
  • Develop metrics to validate the physical realism, diversity, and kinematic feasibility of the generated scenarios.
  • Use generated scenarios to stress-test the vehicle's on-board modules against rare or safety-critical events.
  • Collaborate closely with ML researchers, simulation engineers, and on-board teams to define what makes a scenario useful for their specific needs.
Required Skills:
  • Solid Python programming skills
  • Familiarity with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch preferred)
  • Basic understanding of generative models (e.g., VAEs, GANs, diffusion models)
  • Experience working with datasets (loading, preprocessing)
