## About the role

Autonomous driving software today improves mostly by hand: engineers collect data, train models, and tune modules. This role explores a different approach, in which AI agents take part in that work. Agents propose changes to policy code, data, training recipes, or model code. They then evaluate the results, diagnose failures, and turn verified fixes into reusable skills and data for the next round. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Strong background in machine learning, such as deep learning, reinforcement learning, or decision-making systems
- Hands-on experience building LLM agent systems, such as tool use, multi-agent orchestration, or automated evaluation loops
- Experience training or fine-tuning LLMs for agentic workflows, including trajectory data curation, supervised fine-tuning, or RL from execution feedback
- Strong Python skills and working C++
- Rigorous experimental habits: controlled comparisons, held-out evaluation, and a clear line between what was measured and what was assumed
- Ability to own a system from research prototype to production
