Expert DL Deployment Engineer IRC284135

Description

Our client is dedicated to making safe, intelligent mobility a reality. Headquartered in Sweden, they develop a complete, scalable software stack for ADAS and autonomous driving—from sensing to actuation—and are soon to launch with a major global automaker.

Driven by the goal of reducing fatal accidents by 100%, their team of 500+ global engineers combines technical excellence with a shared passion for saving lives. The company values a T-shaped competence profile, prioritizing a strong mindset, responsibility, and collaboration over a pure skill set. They offer a flexible hybrid work environment where ambition, mentorship, and software craftsmanship thrive.

Requirements

To be considered an “Expert” for this role, you must demonstrate a proven track record of shipping neural networks to target hardware in previous professional environments.

Core Technical Competencies

High-Performance Computing (C++ & Python):

• Expert-level proficiency in C++ for low-latency production environments.
• Strong command of Python for model interfacing, scripting, and automation.
• Solid software engineering background (OOP, design patterns, version control) with a focus on writing clean, maintainable, and testable code.

GPU & Parallel Programming:

• Deep understanding of GPU architectures and memory management.
• Hands-on experience with CUDA programming, including writing and optimizing custom kernels to squeeze maximum performance out of the hardware.

Inference Optimization:

• Extensive experience with NVIDIA TensorRT for optimizing deep learning models.
• Proficiency in model compression techniques, including quantization (INT8/FP16), pruning, and layer fusion.
• Familiarity with model exchange formats (e.g., ONNX) and how to debug conversion failures.

Production & Embedded Engineering

• Deployment Strategy: Experience deploying software in embedded environments or edge devices (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Orin, or custom hardware).
• Resource Constraints: Ability to work within strict constraints regarding power consumption, thermal limits, and memory bandwidth without sacrificing model accuracy.
• Production Readiness: Experience integrating inference engines into larger production pipelines, ensuring robustness, stability, and error handling.

The “Expert” Factor (Soft Skills & Leadership)

• Architectural Ownership: Ability to make high-level decisions regarding hardware selection and software stack architecture.
• Mentorship: Willingness to guide junior engineers and share knowledge on optimization best practices.
• Problem Solving: Demonstrated ability to debug complex issues at the intersection of hardware, drivers, and software.

Ideally, you also have… (Bonus Qualifications)

• Knowledge of Docker/Containerization for reproducible deployment.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines specifically for Machine Learning (MLOps).
• Background in Computer Vision or Signal Processing.

Job responsibilities

Job Responsibilities
As a key team member, you will bridge the gap between experimental deep learning research and our production codebase. You will own the lifecycle of model deployment, ensuring our neural networks run at peak efficiency on our target hardware.

Deployment & Compilation

• Model Transition: Lead the deployment of deep learning models from the research environment into the production product code.
• Engine Generation: Compile and generate optimized TensorRT engine files tailored for specific target platforms, including x86, NVIDIA Xavier, and Orin.
• Version Management: Manage the versioning and compatibility of deployed models within the larger system architecture.

Custom Kernel Development

• Gap Analysis: Identify limitations in NVIDIA DriveOS layer support required for next-gen DL models.
• Plugin Implementation: Design, code, and integrate custom CUDA kernels as TensorRT plugins to enable unsupported network layers.
• High-Performance Coding: Write highly optimized C++ code to bridge the gap between research model architectures and hardware capabilities.

Performance Optimization

• Efficiency Tuning: Drive the optimization strategy to ensure models run efficiently on System-on-Chip (SoC) constraints.
• Advanced Techniques: Apply and refine hardware-aware optimization techniques.
