Robert Bosch Group
Lead Research Scientist- GenAI for 3D Computer Vision
Robert Bosch Group, Sunnyvale, California, United States, 94087
Overview
The Bosch Research and Technology Center North America (RTC-NA) with offices in Sunnyvale, CA; Pittsburgh, PA; and Cambridge, MA is part of the global Bosch Group. The Research and Technology Center North America focuses on technologies and system solutions across artificial intelligence, energy technologies, internet technologies, circuit design, semiconductors, wireless, and advanced MEMS design. Our AI research in Silicon Valley centers on Foundation Models, Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision & Mixed Reality, Cloud Robotics, Big Data Visual Analytics, Explainable AI (XAI), Data Science, AI System Engineering, and Time-series Analysis. We develop scalable, intelligent, and trustworthy AIoT solutions for Bosch products and services in areas such as automated driving, ADAS, robotics, smart manufacturing, enterprise AI, health care, and smart home/building solutions.
Originating from the AI research in Silicon Valley, our
Foundation Model Powered AI Enablers
group plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of industrial AI experiences for Bosch products and services. We research and develop scalable and transparent AI & big data analytic solutions (e.g., audio, images, sensor logs) for domains including Industry 4.0 (I4.0), IoT, autonomous driving, and connected vehicles. Our award-winning team collaborates with leading academic and industry groups to advance research ideas and disseminate findings in top AI conferences and journals (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ICRA, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, SIGGRAPH, TVCG).
Responsibilities
Lead research and development
in generative AI and 3D computer vision to enable embodied intelligence across domains such as ADAS/AD, robotics, and industrial automation.
Advance 3D perception capabilities
by integrating large-scale vision-language-action models, enhancing reasoning, explainability, and open-world understanding.
Architect and implement scalable solutions , translating cutting-edge research into robust, real-world systems within Bosch’s platforms.
Collaborate cross-functionally
with global research and engineering teams to ensure seamless technology transfer and system integration.
Stay at the forefront of innovation
by engaging with academic and industry communities through conferences, workshops, and technical events.
Contribute to intellectual property
through high-impact publications and patent submissions, shaping the future of generative 3D AI technologies.
Basic Qualifications
Ph.D. in Computer Science with a minimum of 3 years of industry experience after graduation.
5+ years of R&D experience, or an equivalent graduate research background, primarily in AI technologies including 3D computer vision, automotive motion, behavioral planning, etc.
3+ years of technical leadership experience
Proficiency in one or more programming languages commonly used in machine learning (e.g., Python, C++, Rust) and major frameworks like PyTorch
Hands-on experience in computer vision and deep learning with a focus on at least two areas: multimodal transformers or vision-language models, diffusion models, NeRF or Gaussian splatting, VLA modeling, 3D scene understanding, sensor calibration, autonomous driving, SfM, behavior modeling/prediction, or voxel/BEV grid-based feature representation
Strong interpersonal, communication, and teamwork capabilities
Preferred Qualifications
Publication record in top venues (CVPR, ICCV, ICRA, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, SIGGRAPH, TVCG)
Industry experience building end-to-end systems and world models for ADAS development
Experience working with hardware systems, including sensors such as cameras, depth sensors, IMU, LIDAR
Strong background in mathematics and statistics
Ability to work independently with strong research and problem-solving skills
Good communication and teamwork skills
Benefits and Compliance Your well-being matters at Bosch. We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package designed to empower you in every area of your life, including premium health coverage, a 401(k) with generous matching, resources for financial planning and goal setting, ample paid time off, parental leave, and comprehensive life and disability protection.
Bosch adheres to Federal, State, and Local laws regarding drug-testing. Employment is contingent upon the successful completion of a drug screen and background check. Candidates who have been offered the position must pass both screenings before their start date.
Salary The U.S. base salary range for this full-time position is $180,000 - $210,000. Within the range, individual pay is determined based on factors including work experience, job knowledge, complexity of the role, and location. Your Recruiter can share more details about the specific salary range during the interview process.
