Senior Applied GenAI Engineer – Multimodal / VLM (Automotive & ADAS)
We are looking for a Senior Applied GenAI Engineer to own the full lifecycle of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for an automotive and ADAS program.
The candidate will be responsible for adapting, fine-tuning, evaluating, optimizing, deploying, and continuously improving production-grade multimodal AI solutions for automotive use cases.
The role involves working on GenAI/VLM applications including scene and perception visual question answering, cabin and driver understanding, natural-language and multimodal interfaces, and VLM-assisted data annotation.
The candidate will work in a small agile team of 5–6 members and will serve as the technical lead for the GenAI/VLM workstream, driving technical threads end-to-end with minimal hand-holding.
Key requirements include strong hands-on experience with Python, PyTorch, Hugging Face, LoRA/QLoRA, production inference, MLOps, Docker, model evaluation, inference optimization, and multimodal/VLM technologies.
Automotive/ADAS experience and exposure to autonomous-driving datasets such as NuScenes, DriveLM or NuScenes-QA, as well as edge/embedded deployment, are preferred.
Responsibilities
* Adapt, fine-tune, evaluate, and deploy LLMs and Vision-Language Models for automotive and ADAS use cases.
* Develop multimodal AI solutions for scene/perception VQA, cabin and driver understanding, natural-language interfaces, and VLM-assisted data annotation.
* Benchmark pretrained VLMs and improve them using parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques such as LoRA and QLoRA.
* Own the complete model lifecycle covering data pipelines, training, evaluation, inference, serving, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
* Build and optimize production inference services using technologies such as vLLM, TGI, TensorRT-LLM, or Triton.
* Develop Dockerized deployment solutions and REST/inference APIs.
* Optimize model latency, throughput, memory utilization, and cost using quantization, continuous batching, and KV-cache management.
* Build evaluation harnesses and rigorously analyze failure modes including hallucination, weak visual grounding, and robustness issues.
* Optimize models for automotive constraints including latency, memory, edge, and embedded targets.
* Work with perception, platform, embedded, safety, and release teams to integrate GenAI/VLM solutions.
* Maintain data privacy, governance, evaluation, and traceability suitable for automotive validation and release processes.
* Mentor team members and provide technical direction for the GenAI/VLM workstream.
* Stay current with emerging LLM/VLM techniques and apply relevant approaches pragmatically.
* Clearly communicate accuracy, latency, and cost trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
