Senior AI Engineer for the Infotainment Platform (f/m/x)

What awaits you? You design and own end-to-end AI and data architectures - from data ingestion and feature pipelines to model deployment and monitoring - with a strong focus on production-grade edge AI inside the vehicle. Additionally, you build scalable platform architectures that serve multiple feature teams across the Android ecosystem (e.g. digital cockpits, infotainment features), enabling them to deliver AI-powered customer experiences and at scale. You provide leadership for Android Automotive and its ecosystem, ensuring that AI platform decisions align with Android evolution, AOSP constraints, and long-term platform scalability. In addition, you define and evolve clear interfaces between AI platforms, Android infotainment, and application development - staying compatible with new Android versions while keeping the AI infrastructure adaptive and future-proof. You translate emerging AI requirements production-ready platform capabilities, bridging applied research, platform engineering, and product needs. You are constantly driving the AI strategy for infotainment platforms, tracking key technology trends (e.g. on-device LLMs/VLMs, multimodal interaction, agentic AI) and collaborating with leading external technology partners.

What should you bring along? Master's or PhD in Computer Science, AI, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field, with hands-on experience in AI and data architecture beyond prototypes. In-depth knowledge of Android (AOSP / Android Automotive) as a production platform, its limits and evolution. Strong experience with AI architecture onboard and offboard, as well as implementation of Small Language Models, Vision Language Models, or autonomous driving models. Knowledge of multi-agent systems orchestration, multi-turn dialogues, and related open standards (e.g., A2A, MCP). Experience with AI training toolchains and workflows including pruning, fine-tuning, and multimodal encoding. Proficiency in Rust, C++, Kotlin, and modern, API-driven system architectures.
