Bosch led the way in machine learning (ML) hirings over the February-July period with 750 active jobs. Advertised roles included a PhD (focused on leveraging prior knowledge for safe and efficient deep learning solutions to autonomous driving), data engineer, senior software engineer and apprentice data scientist.

The engineering and technology titan has long been at the vanguard of artificial intelligence (AI) research and development, founding its Center for Artificial Intelligence in 2017 with the aim of deploying cutting-edge ML technologies across its product portfolio. Bosch has said that, by 2025, the aim is for all of its products to either contain AI or have been developed or manufactured with its help.
