About Stack:

Stack is developing revolutionary AI and advanced autonomous systems designed to enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency of modern operations. Stack's autonomous technology incorporates cutting-edge advancements in artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, and cloud technologies, empowering us to create innovative solutions that address the needs and challenges of the dynamic trucking transportation industry. With decades of experience creating and deploying real world systems for demanding environments, the Stack team is dedicated to developing an autonomous solution ecosystem tailored to the trucking industry's unique demands.

About the Role:

The AI Data Infrastructure team sits between Stack’s data and its engineers. We provide tooling and infrastructure to process petabytes of data per month into actionable insights for ML and autonomy engineers. In particular, we provide data pipelines to run tasks on new data, services and frontend to search for data, and tooling to stream and transform data in our various data storage mediums.

  • Data Processing: we are building state of the art infrastructure to support our scaling fleet and ML engineering needs. For this role, you would be responsible for ensuring our processing pipelines are customer friendly, fault tolerant and performant.
  • Data Search: we provide our end users with a platform that combines searching across our metadata stores, vector database, and parts of our data warehouse and then visualize the data (think YouTube). You would be coming in and working with ML and autonomy stakeholders to improve the reliability of the pipelines that feed into our search platform.
  • Data Lineage: we are getting started with building our data lineage system that will track the usage of all data at Stack. You would work with our stakeholders to ensure our system is widely adopted and address customer pain points.

Responsibilities:

  • Architect data processing pipelines that handle multimodal (video, point cloud, audio, text) data for a wide base of customers.
  • Manage core libraries used by the entire company for data transformations and processing.
  • Build low latency/high throughput, fault tolerant batch or stream processing systems.
  • Build scalable backend services for data search and data curation systems.
  • Write high quality Python, SQL and Golang code.

Qualifications:

  • Experience building and managing data platforms for multimodal ML needs.
  • Proven track record of building scalable, reliable infrastructure in a fast-paced environment.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively across teams.
  • Experience building or using ML infrastructure for a large number of customer teams.
  • Deep understanding of design trade-offs with the ability to articulate those trade-offs and achieve alignment with others.
  • Experience in building ML models or infrastructure in domains such as autonomous vehicles, perception, and decision-making (desirable but not required).
  • Prior experience in autonomous vehicles (AV) is a plus.

We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We believe that diverse teams produce the best ideas and outcomes. We are committed to building a culture of inclusion, entrepreneurship, and innovation across gender, race, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, and identity.

Born from the collective vision of seasoned leaders in robotics and artificial intelligence, Stack AV embarked on its journey in 2023 with a clear mission: to revolutionize the trucking industry. The company's genesis lies in the extensive experience of its founders, Bryan Salesky (CEO), Peter Rander (President), and Brett Browning (CTO), who previously helmed Argo AI, a notable venture in autonomous passenger vehicle technology. Recognizing the evolving demands of global commerce and the critical need for more intelligent and reliable supply chains, they pivoted their focus to autonomous trucking, an area ripe for transformative innovation. With substantial backing from SoftBank Group Corp., Stack AV was launched with the capital, resources, and deep AI expertise necessary to accelerate its ambitious growth and technological development. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a burgeoning hub for robotics and AI, Stack AV quickly assembled a team of 150 experts across its main office and an additional 15 states, leveraging an innovative remote-work and co-working collaboration model.

Stack AV's core philosophy centers on addressing the long-standing challenges that have plagued the trucking industry. These include persistent driver shortages, inefficiencies in vehicle uptime, significant safety concerns, high operational costs, and the environmental impact of emissions. By developing and deploying sophisticated AI-powered autonomous driving systems, the company aims to create safer, more efficient, and more reliable freight transportation. Their proprietary technology, coupled with a rigorous approach to safe systems design and testing, is engineered to maximize truck uptime, optimize existing infrastructure, and significantly improve roadway safety. This commitment extends to creating smarter supply chains for their partners, enabling them to deliver goods to consumers faster and more securely. The leadership team's combined seven decades of experience in developing complex, autonomy-enabled systems provides a strong foundation for tackling the unique demands of the trucking industry and driving it towards a more technologically advanced and sustainable future.
