About the company:

Zoox is transforming mobility-as-a-service by developing a fully autonomous, purpose-built fleet designed for AI to drive and humans to enjoy.


Zoox is on a mission to reimagine transportation and ground-up build autonomous robotaxis that are safe, reliable, clean, and enjoyable for everyone. We are still in the early stages of deploying our robotaxis on public roads, and it is a great time to join Zoox and have a significant impact in executing this mission. The ML Platform team at Zoox plays a crucial role in enabling innovations in ML and AI to make autonomous driving as seamless as possible. 

The Opportunity
Would you like to enable ML use cases for enabling autonomous driving, scene understanding, and automated mapping at Zoox? This role works across all ML teams within Zoox - Perception, Behavior ML, Simulation, Data Science, Collision Avoidance, as well as with our Advanced Hardware Engineering group specifying our next generation of autonomous hardware.  You will significantly push the boundaries of how ML is practiced within Zoox.

We build and operate the base layer of ML tools, deep learning frameworks, inference libraries, and ML infrastructure used by our applied research teams for in- and off-vehicle ML use cases. We coordinate across all of Zoox to make sure that the needs of both the vehicle and ML teams are met. You will play a crucial role in reducing the time it takes from ideation to productionization of cutting-edge AI innovation. This team has a lot of growth opportunities as we expand our robotaxi deployments and venture into new ML domains.
