The role offers exposure to the full process of moving research ideas into working prototypes and testing them in safety-critical systems. Internship Tracks and Focus For Summer 2026, two internship tracks are available within the ML Prediction and Planning team. The responsibilities below describe the Autonomous Vehicles track. Applied Research Project: Lead a research effort to study how different model ensembling strategies affect the gap between open-loop (training) and closed-loop (simulation) results. Tasks include reviewing academic literature, developing hypotheses, and prototyping solutions using Python and machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch. Design Ensembling Strategies: Implement and test various ensembling methods, including blending models trained with different random seeds, combining checkpoints from separate training phases, and applying weighted or learned blending approaches. Run Controlled Experiments: Compare the outcomes of single-model and ensemble methods, examining the impact of seed and checkpoint diversity. Evaluate both open-loop metrics (like training and validation loss, accuracy) and closed-loop metrics (such as simulation performance, safety, and stability). Analyze Metric Alignment: Explore how improvements in open-loop metrics correspond to closed-loop results, and identify scenarios where ensembling enhances performance.
