Perception and SLAM Machine learning Engineer Job at AIM Intelligent Machines in

AIM Intelligent Machines, Seattle, WA, United States


About AIM Intelligent Machines Everything humanity depends on is mined, dug, or grown. At AIM, we are building the autonomous linchpin of civilization. We transform heavy machinery—bulldozers, loaders, excavators—into AI-powered fleets that operate continuously, safely, and at peak performance in the world’s harshest environments. AIM runs production mines, large scale infrastructure builds, and defense operations as a TRL9 hardened system, not a science experiment. Built by engineers from mining, construction, Waymo, SpaceX, Google and Tesla, AIM enables scalable earthmoving, turbocharging the global economy’s physical foundation. AIM is backed by some of the most sophisticated capital in the world, including General Catalyst, Khosla Ventures, Elad Gil, Human Capital, Ironspring Ventures, Mantis, DCVC.
Responsibilities Advance AIM’s perception stack and sensor fusion algorithms

This involves breaking new ground as earth moving machines don’t merely navigate on existing mapped roads – they modify and build the environment as they work which poses interesting novel challenges

Research and development of state-of-the-art machine learning methods

Comfortable with hands-on applications on machines deployed in the field

Qualifications Proven track record of deployed ML-based perception systems, ideally on autonomous vehicles

Excellent grasp of machine perception methods in 2D and 3D (depth sensing)

Real-world experience with localization and SLAM state-of-the-art methods

Experience shipping production models

Solid mathematical foundation of machine learning

Excellent software development skills in python

Proficiency in Tensorflow or PyTorch

Creativity and curiosity for solving complex problems

Ideal candidate will have additional experience in several of the following areas

Reinforcement learning

Robotics

Radar based perception

Point cloud processing

Perception sensor calibration techniques (camera, lidar, radar, etc.)

Why AIM? Joining AIM, You Will Solve a massive set of real-world problems that require scalable earth moving

Accomplish that via deploying and expanding cutting edge tech

Run your workstreams with the largest degree of autonomy

Have an opportunity for rapid growth and a large voice on the direction of the company

Receive company funded medical, dental, vision, 401k, life insurance, gourmet food & perks
