Senior Engineering Manager - Scalable Machine Learning

Latitude AI (lat.ai) is building the future of Ford’s autonomy roadmap to make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone. Bringing this vision to scale, our fully in-house developed hands-free ADAS platform will debut on the all-new Ford Fathom in 2027.

When you join the Latitude team, you’ll work alongside leading experts across machine learning and robotics, cloud platforms, mapping, sensors and compute systems, test operations, systems and safety engineering – all dedicated to redefining the relationship between people and their vehicles for millions of customers.

As a Ford Motor Company subsidiary, we operate independently to develop automated driving technology at the speed of a technology startup. Latitude is headquartered in Pittsburgh with engineering centers in Dearborn, Mich., and Palo Alto, Calif.

Meet the team:

In the Intelligent Systems team, we convert photons into understanding, primarily via computer vision and machine learning. Our organization is responsible for all downstream tasks of the vehicle sensor suite onboard, as well as the full offboard/cloud infrastructure for machine learning at Latitude.

What you’ll do:

Scaling our machine learning models with data and fast infrastructure is vital to achieve optimal performance and to enable a safer and more sustainable future of transportation. The Scalable ML team builds the data generation, orchestration, and distributed training infrastructure that lets our ML developers work efficiently with large volumes of data, and it sits at the intersection of several infrastructure teams: ML Platform, Jobs Platform, Cloud Platform, and High Performance Computing.

In this role, you will manage the Scalable ML team while also setting the technical strategy for how our data and training infrastructure interoperates with those adjacent platform teams. This is a job for someone who can both run a high-performing engineering team and act as the technical bridge across organizations that do not report to them.
