Senior ML Software Engineer, Mapping

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

The Mapping team at Lyft is tasked with building a digital representation of the physical world - a map. We collect and serve the freshest and most accurate mapping data possible, along with algorithms, models, platform services, and map-based user experiences that power Lyft’s current and future transportation offerings.

Mapping represents a huge opportunity for Lyft’s business, but also a big challenge. We build and scale systems that deal with large data storage, real-time data processing, machine / deep learning pipelines, routing and ETA models, driver and passenger location tracking, and more. We built beautiful and magical user experiences on top of all those services, and compete with companies that have been in the mapping business for decades.

To strengthen our efforts, we are hiring a Senior ML Engineer who will work end-to-end on creating and improving new capabilities to detect changes in the environment and reflect them in our Lyft map using a wide variety of input sources from the Lyft fleet. For this we are looking for someone who values software engineering best practices, loves the algorithmic and geospatial side of the challenge and is data-driven from start to end.

Our technology stack ranges from basic machine learning models to large language models and running them at scale on millions of images. You will work with incredibly passionate and talented colleagues from machine learning, data science, and engineering on projects that delight our passengers and drivers – powered by an up to date map.
