Job description

Isuzu Technical Center of America is seeking an Advanced Engineering & Research Intern to join its operations in Plymouth, MI, for Summer/Fall 2026. The selected candidate will be placed with a preferred agency for employment.
JOB SUMMARY
Supports advanced engineering and research for Level 4 autonomous driving by developing, evaluating, and applying multimodal AI models - including vision-language models (VLMs), vision-language-action models (VLAs), large language models (LLMs), and world models - for data triage, autonomous driving system development, simulation, and verification and validation (V&V). Works closely with Isuzu U.S. and Japan teams, well known autonomous driving partners, and research institutes to build AI-assisted workflows for mining on-road data, identifying edge cases, generating and curating scenarios, analyzing perception/prediction/planning behavior, and improving simulation-based safety evaluation. Works at the intersection of vehicle engineering, robotics, machine learning, data engineering, and safety assurance. Performs tasks of increasing complexity throughout the internship.
