About Rivian

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.

As a company, we constantly challenge what's possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.


Role Summary

Autonomy & AI development relies directly on our ability to understand the environment in which our cars
operate, discover interesting and challenging scenarios, and simulate them digitally at scale to accelerate
our software development, testing, iteration, and evaluation. The Simulation, Dataset Management, and
Log Replay products are critical for Rivian's steady march towards the eyes-off autonomy platform and
keeping our customers safe.


Responsibilities

  • In this role, you will be responsible for building out our Simulation & Log replay tooling to
    accelerate software development. The platform you build will enable engineers to improve
    autonomy performance, protect our software from regressions, and help us ascertain how safe,
    performant, compliant and comfortable Rivian Autonomy Platform is before we launch it to our
    customers.
  • You will also be responsible for dataset management - including creating datasets rich with
    metadata & embeddings, enabling easy search and discovery of interesting events, and helping
    scale our evaluations.
  • The person we are looking for should quickly understand our engineering process and needs, and be able to provide immediate solutions to unblock critical work, but at the same time balance long term vision and systemic platform improvements to drive efficiencies.

Qualifications

  • B.S., M.S. or Ph.D. in Computer Science, or STEM field.
  • 8+ years experience in AI or ML driven consumer or enterprise Product Management.
  • Experience leading significant products or platforms working closely with engineering, design,
    analytics teams. You should have crafted product vision & strategies, written product
    requirements, coordinated with marketing, legal, privacy, policy, etc.
  • Strong history of analyzing large scale data, statistical thinking, and bringing everyone to make
    data driven decisions.
  • Great communicator and has the ability to drive extreme clarity.
  • Experience in Autonomy is not necessary, but an innate passion and a missionary zeal to make
    roads safer is an absolute requirement.
