Role overview

At Serve Robotics, we’re reimagining how things move in cities. Our personable sidewalk robot is our vision for the future. It’s designed to take deliveries away from congested streets, make deliveries available to more people, and benefit local businesses.

The Serve fleet has been delighting merchants, customers, and pedestrians along the way in Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas, Atlanta and Chicago while doing commercial deliveries. We’re looking for talented individuals who will grow robotic deliveries from surprising novelty to efficient ubiquity.

What you'll work on

  • Design and maintain training systems that can process and learn from petabyte-scale multimodal datasets (e.g., video and point cloud data). This includes ensuring data is efficiently loaded, distributed, and processed across large GPU clusters.
  • Identify and resolve bottlenecks in the training pipeline, including data loading, preprocessing, model computation, and inter-node communication, to maximize GPU utilization and reduce training time.
  • Work with the ML team to develop and refine neural network architectures suitable for autonomy tasks, particularly those handling high-dimensional and sequential sensor data.
  • Create and adjust loss functions and training strategies that help the model learn effectively from complex multimodal inputs and improve autonomy performance.
  • Configure, monitor, and maintain large-scale distributed training jobs across multiple machines and GPUs, ensuring stability, fault tolerance, and efficient resource usage.
  • Implement scalable systems to preprocess, transform, and augment large robotics datasets so that they are suitable for model training.
  • Work closely with ML scientists and other engineers to integrate new models, experiments, and training approaches into the production training pipeline.
  • Analyze training metrics, model outputs, and experiment logs to assess model performance and guide improvements in architecture, data usage, or training strategies.
  • Develop tools and workflows that allow teams to run experiments, track results, and iterate quickly on new model ideas or training approaches.
