By mining driving logs for long-tail events, we provide the foundational data required for safe autonomous trucking. Leveraging Pegasus logical layers, this team structures and catalogs findings into an observations database that directly accelerates development across autonomous perception, sensor fusion, and generative simulation testing.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335559738":0,"335559739":150}"> </span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="none">What You'll Do:</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335559738":0,"335559739":150}"> </span></p> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Scenario Mining at Scale:</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> Architect and optimize distributed data pipelines to process massive multi-sensor logs (camera, LiDAR, radar, kinematics), automatically extracting and cataloging safety-critical and long-tail driving events.</span></li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Advanced Event Tagging:</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> Develop and tune both heuristic-based and ML-assisted algorithms (including exploring Vision-Language Models or semantic vector search) to automatically classify and describe complex environmental and behavioral scenarios.</span></li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Standardized Data Structuring:</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> Extract and format scenario data utilizing the Pegasus layer standard (alongside opensource frameworks) to ensure semantic consistency and rigorous metadata integrity.</span></li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Data Flywheel Integration:</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> Manage the ingestion of tagged events into the observations database, enabling high-speed querying and retrieval for ML training, regression testing, and system validation.</span></li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Cross-Functional Alignment:</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> Operate with broad autonomy to drive consensus across organizational boundaries.
