    Your role in the team

    • Artificial Intelligence and machine learning are at the cutting edge when it comes to shaping next-gen mobility in areas like automated driving. But it takes real intellectual leadership and expertise to identify and then harness the AI trends and technologies that will transform the way people travel for good.
    • At BMW's Autonomous Driving Campus, we develop and scale next-generation perception and planning systems for autonomous driving. You will build production-grade machine learning solutions using one of the industry's largest real-world driving datasets, powering millions of vehicles worldwide.
    • You design and develop next-generation architecture at the intersection of multi-modal perception, foundation models, behavior learning, and end-to-end autonomous driving.
    • Furthermore, you co-design cutting-edge software that translates state-of-the-art research into production-ready systems at scale.
    • You execute training and evaluation cycles on large-scale datasets, from data curation and representation learning to error diagnosis and model optimization.
    • Additionally, you drive the integration of backbone and foundation models into BMW's autonomous driving perception and planning stack, ensuring robustness across diverse markets and operational design domains.
    • You evaluate and advance state-of-the-art methods in self-supervised learning, multi-modal fusion, and end-to-end architectures for real-world deployment.
    • Furthermore, you contribute across the full development lifecycle, from early-stage research prototyping to series release, with direct impact on customers worldwide.
