What To Expect
As a member of the Autopilot Team, you will build systems for offline and online 3D reconstruction and scene understanding that are robust, accurate, and performant. You will work on a world class spatial computing platform deployed at scale.
What You'll Do

Leverage state of the art techniques for spatial computing (such as NeRFs, Diffusion Models, Gaussian Splatting, Multiview Stereo, TSDF Fusion, Structure from Motion, SLAM)

Improve mission critical perception systems that enhance customer comfort and safety for all Tesla cars on the road (driving autonomously or not).

Push the boundaries of real world AI

Strict adherence to strong software engineering practices to develop novel work quickly and safely

What You'll Bring

Experience with 3D computer vision and graphics concepts such as camera models, multi view geometry, and rendering pipelines

Domain expertise in an area of computer vision such as object detection & tracking, pose estimation, depth estimation, panoptic segmentation, 3D reconstruction, visual SLAM, structure from motion, neural rendering (e.g. NeRFs or gaussian splatting), novel view synthesis

Solid mathematical fundamentals including linear algebra, computational geometry, vector calculus, probability theory, and numeric optimization

Understanding of modern deep learning techniques (such as transformers, diffusion models, autoregressive models, multi-modal models, CNNs, etc.)

Experience in real time graphics or non-real time rendering is a plus

Exposure to sensor fusion, signal processing, computational photography, and robotics is a plus
