NVIDIA is redefining the automotive industry through accelerated computing, artificial intelligence, simulation, and full-stack autonomous vehicle development. The pace and quality of AV development depend on delivering the right sensor, ground-truth, and derived data to machine learning teams reliably, transparently, and at scale. It's truly the data that makes the cars drive!
The AV MLOps Dataset Release team transforms large-scale automotive data into versioned, trustworthy datasets used to train and evaluate machine learning models across the autonomous-driving stack. We are seeking an ML Data Operations Lead to own the customer-facing operational lifecycle of these releases. In this role, you will work at the intersection of machine learning, data engineering, infrastructure, and release operations. You will partner with ML engineers to understand their data needs, translate those needs into actionable release requirements, coordinate execution with the engineering team, and ensure every release is delivered with clear validation, documentation, and communication. This is a senior individual-contributor role. It requires sufficient technical depth to investigate problems, assess delivery risk, and challenge unclear requirements, while focusing primarily on operational ownership rather than developing the underlying data pipelines.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Serve as the primary operational partner for ML engineers and other internal consumers of AV datasets.
- Capture and clarify dataset release requirements, including intended use cases, required signals and labels, data volumes, release cadence, delivery timelines, storage destinations, and acceptance criteria.
- Be responsible for the release calendar and coordinate priorities, dependencies, engineering readiness, and compute capacity across multiple concurrent dataset-release tracks.
- Monitor production release workflows from launch through delivery. Identify failures, stalled tasks, resource constraints, missing data, and other risks, then bring together the appropriate engineers and infrastructure owners to drive resolution.
- Validate release results against expected volumes, signals, versions, and quality criteria before communicating availability to customers.
- Maintain timely, accurate communication with customers regarding release status, risks, incidents, changing estimates, and recovery plans.
- Produce release notes, delivery announcements, known-issue documentation, and handoff information that enable ML teams to understand and use each dataset confidently.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- 6+ years of experience in ML data operations, technical service delivery, dataset operations, release operations, technical program execution, or another data-intensive operational role.
- Solid understanding of the machine learning data lifecycle, including data collection, curation, labeling, validation, versioning, release, storage, and consumption by training or evaluation pipelines.
- Ability to use SQL and data-analysis tools to investigate dataset contents, reconcile expected and delivered results, and identify quality or completeness issues.
- Strong customer orientation and skill in translating between ML engineers, data specialists, infrastructure teams, and other technical collaborators.
- Excellent written communication skills, including the ability to produce detailed requirements, release notes, status updates, incident summaries, and operating procedures.
- Excellent judgment when balancing customer timelines, engineering capacity, system reliability, data quality, and competing release priorities.
- Proven track record of influencing without direct authority and driving work to completion across a highly matrixed organization.
- Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment where requirements, data availability, and technical constraints may change quickly.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Experience operating large-scale dataset generation, materialization, validation, or delivery workflows, especially for autonomous-driving, ADAS, robotics, or computer-vision systems.
- Familiarity with automotive sensor and ground-truth data, including camera, lidar, radar, mapping, calibration, or multimodal datasets.
- Hands-on experience with Python, notebooks, Databricks, dashboards, or lightweight automation used to investigate data and improve operational workflows.
- Experience defining service-level objectives, operational metrics, alerting, incident-management practices, and root-cause corrective actions.
- A track record of converting frequently repeated customer requests or operational problems into standardized, automated, and scalable services.
NVIDIA brings together some of the most skilled and creative people in technology to solve problems that were once considered impossible. You will have the opportunity to work with teams advancing autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence, accelerated computing, and large-scale data systems while directly improving the speed and reliability of machine learning development.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in Machine Learning
Align your credentials to U.S. specialty occupation standards
Your Australian bachelor's degree in computer science, mathematics, or a related quantitative field satisfies the E-3 visa education requirement. If your degree is in a different discipline, document how your coursework and ML experience map directly to the role's technical demands.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Search DOL's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure data to identify companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications for machine learning roles. Repeat filers understand the E-3 process and won't treat your visa as an obstacle during hiring.
Clarify E-3 versus H-1B costs before negotiating offers
E-3 sponsorship skips the H-1B lottery entirely and involves fewer employer filing fees. Raising this early in offer discussions removes a common hesitation, especially at smaller AI labs and startups that are unfamiliar with Australian-specific visa options.
Get your LCA filed before your start date locks in
The employer must obtain a certified Labor Condition Application from DOL before you can proceed to the consulate. LCA certification typically takes seven business days, so confirm this step is underway as soon as your offer letter is signed.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage your paperwork
Once you have a job offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end-to-end. This keeps the process on track and reduces the risk of documentation errors that delay your consulate appointment.
Prepare role-specific evidence for your consulate interview
Consular officers assess whether your ML role genuinely requires a specialized degree. Bring your offer letter, a job description referencing specific technical requirements, and documentation tying your qualifications to those requirements rather than relying on a generic title.
E-3 Visa Machine Learning: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find machine learning jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate lists machine learning roles from U.S. employers who are open to E-3 sponsorship for Australian nationals. Filtering by visa type saves time compared to applying broadly and discovering late in the process that a company won't support the E-3. From there, you can move directly into the filing process once an offer is in hand.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a machine learning role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, machine learning engineering consistently qualifies as a specialty occupation because the role requires a theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge, typically a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, statistics, or a related quantitative field. If your job description includes model development, training pipelines, or deployment architecture, it will ordinarily satisfy USCIS criteria.
How does the E-3 visa compare to the H-1B for machine learning engineers?
The E-3 has a 10,500 annual allocation that has never been exhausted, so there is no lottery and no registration cap to worry about. The H-1B requires entering a random lottery with roughly a one-in-four chance of selection. For Australian ML engineers, the E-3 is a direct path that can be initiated as soon as you hold a qualifying offer, with no randomness involved.
Can I switch machine learning jobs while on an E-3 visa?
Yes, but your new employer must file a fresh LCA with DOL and you will need to obtain a new E-3 visa stamp before re-entering the U.S. or complete a change of employer while maintaining lawful status inside the country. Unlike the H-1B portability rules, there is no mechanism to port an E-3 to a new employer mid-stream, so plan for a processing window of at least a few weeks.
