• Signal Processing: Apply advanced signal-processing techniques to transform vehicle data and perform large-scale analysis of corner cases of interest.
• ML Model Building: Research, develop, and train machine learning models (e.g., Decision Trees, Random Forests, Neural Networks) for prediction, detection, and classification tasks.
• System Integration: Architect the end-to-end workflow that processes raw vehicle logs, performs automated analysis, and prepares data for model training.
• Data visualization: Create easy-to-understand dashboards for the general audience, focusing clearly on outcomes to support decision making.

Qualifications

• Must be currently pursuing a masters or PhD degree at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign (PhD preferred)
• Actively pursuing a degree or one closely related in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Physics
• Proficiency in AI practices and feeding LLM with data and knowledge base
• Strong Programming Fluency: Expertise in Python (including Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn) for data analysis and modeling.
• Advanced ML Knowledge: Deep theoretical and practical understanding of classification algorithms (e.g., SVM, Decision Trees, ANNs) and model evaluation metrics (e.g., F1-score, precision, recall).
• C/C++ Proficiency: Practical experience with C or C++ for embedded systems development and code review.
• Signal Processing Foundation: Demonstrated coursework or project experience with techniques like FFT, Wavelet Transforms, or Control Theory, preffered.
• Understanding of Functional Safety (ISO 26262) principles, preffered.
