At NVIDIA, we are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible within self-driving vehicle technology by bringing to bear the power of Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL).

As a world leader in AI and high-performance computing, NVIDIA provides an outstanding platform where innovative research meets real-world production.

We are looking for a Reinforcement Learning Engineer to join our mission in building intelligent, safe, and efficient self-driving technology that will redefine transportation on a global scale.

What you'll be doing:

• Build and implement brand new Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms for autonomous vehicle decision-making and planning.
• Develop and maintain scalable training pipelines and simulation environments for RL training.
• Collaborate with perception, and planning teams to integrate RL models into the unified autonomous driving stack.
• Benchmark RL model performance against imitation learning baselines in complex urban environments.
• Optimize and deploy RL models to production-grade automotive hardware.

What we need to see:

• BS or higher in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 12+ years of experieence in the related field.
• Solid background in Reinforcement Learning, including policy gradient methods (PPO, GRPO), actor-critic architectures, on-policy and off-policy RL
• Proficiency in PyTorch or TensorFlow and real experience with RL-related algorithm
• Experience in C++ and Python development for real-time systems.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of implementing and debugging complex RL systems.
