Software Engineer (SDS Core - Evaluation)
Applied Intuition, Sunnyvale
The role
SDS Evaluation owns how Applied Intuition measures the performance of its autonomy stacks. You'll build the datasets, metrics, and visualizations that tell perception, prediction, and planning developers whether a change improved the stack, where it remains weak, and what to work on next — the signal teams use to steer development and that leadership uses to judge release readiness.
This role sits at the intersection of autonomy engineering and measurement. You'll work closely with stack developers to turn their open questions into rigorous metrics, drawing on both real road data and novel synthetic scenario generation to evaluate behaviors too rare or too dangerous to encounter on the road. You'll also improve the evaluation infrastructure itself, making runs fast, reliable, and easy to interpret.
