About the Role
We are looking for a versatile Machine Learning Infrastructure Engineer to join
XPeng's
Fuyao
AI
Platform team
- a core AI infrastructure powering autonomous driving, robotics, and intelligent cockpit applications. You will build and optimize next-generation AI infrastructure, spanning
dataloader
, dataset and data production systems, large-scale inference, and distributed compute platforms
- with a strong focus on efficiency, scalability, and reliability.
Job Responsibilities
Contribute to one or more of the following areas: Design and optimize large-scale
data processing, production and
loading
pipelines , supporting heterogeneous data types (images, videos, point clouds, sensor streams, etc.). Build and maintain
high-performance dataset management and
loading
frameworks , ensuring low-latency, high-throughput pipelines for training and inference. Develop and optimize
distributed compute and inference systems , including scheduling, resource utilization, and performance tuning.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g. Algorithms, Data Lakehouse) to translate requirements into production-ready infrastructure solutions. Continuously monitor, profile, and eliminate bottlenecks across AI data, inference and compute stack. Basic Qualifications
Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience. 5+ years of experience in large-scale data processing or ML infrastructure. Proficient in
Python
with solid software engineering fundamentals, clean coding practices, and strong debugging skills. Hands-on experience with
relational databases
and
NoSQL
systems , including metadata and cache management; prior experience with large-scale
VectorDB
is highly desirable. Familiarity with Linux file systems and network I/O optimization for distributed or object storage. Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally in fast-paced environments. Strong ability to learn quickly, adapt to new challenges, and proactively explore and adopt new technologies. Preferred Qualifications
Familiarity with the autonomous driving industry and enthusiasm for its challenges. Experience with distributed computing frameworks such as
Ray, Flink or Spark . Experience in building and scaling ML infrastructure in cloud-native environments. Experience in any of the following areas: Large-scale deep learning training or inference optimization focused on scalability and model acceleration. Columnar storage formats (Parquet/ORC) and related ecosystems, including partitioning, compression, and vectorized I/O optimization. Large-scale data loading frameworks (PyTorch Dataloader, Hugging Face Datasets).
The base salary range for this full-time position is $179,400-$303,600, in addition to bonus, equity and benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position across all US locations. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
We are an Equal Opportunity Employer. It is our policy to provide equal employment opportunities to all qualified persons without regard to race, age, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, disability, veteran status or marital status or any other prescribed category set forth in federal or state regulations.
