Senior Engineer - Reliable Generative AI for Intelligent Agent Safety (m/f/d)

Huawei's Heisenberg Research Center is responsible for advanced technology research, architectural development, design and strategic engineering of our products.

Huawei’s TTE RAMS Lab is a corporate competence center responsible for researching high reliability and high safety architecture as well as technologies for complex intelligent system; Our goal is to provide Huawei products with cutting‑edge researches and advanced technical solutions on intelligent reliability and safety for carrier grade ICT and safety critical systems such as autonomous driving so that our products provide our customers with best user experiences and performance.

Prevailing integration of intelligence into autonomous agentic platforms like multiple agent systems (MAS), robotics, autonomous driving requires rigorous safety considerations. Due to inherent deficiencies of current ML techniques such as regressive generative models, safety is still a major challenge for safe‑critical intelligent systems, issues such as explainability, robustness and reliability pose obstacles for trustworthy applications. Complexity of changing and often adversarial open environment of the system makes brittleness of today’s ML methods a major safety risk factor.
