Summary
Tanmay Agarwal is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Cruise, leading the Autonomy Behaviors team to revolutionize autonomous vehicle navigation with DriveGPT, an LLM-style model that plans optimal trajectories from scene context. He brings 8 years of ML engineering experience across the full lifecycle—dataset generation, modeling, training, evaluation, and production deployment—having previously contributed to autonomy and behavior modeling at Argo AI and Latitude AI. He builds data-mining pipelines to uncover long-tail driving scenarios and develops data-quality monitoring tools to better understand and improve model predictions. He earned an MS in Robotics from CMU, where he focused on reinforcement learning for autonomous driving under Prof. Jeff Schneider, and earlier worked at Samsung R&D Institute Bangalore on real-time word prediction for a swipe-gesture keyboard. Based in Sammamish, WA, he is passionate about scalable, human-level AI applications across Robotics, Health, and Finance and is open to connecting to explore collaboration.
