    • You will develop metrics and tools to analyze errors and understand improvements of our systems
    • You will collaborate with engineers on the other parts of CAS Perception, CAS Verification & Validation, CAS Planner, and the Main AI teams to solve the overall Autonomous Driving problem in complex urban environments
