The Perception team at Zoox is responsible for developing the “eyes and ears” of our self-driving robot. Navigating safely and competently in the world requires us to detect, classify, track and understand several different attributes of all the objects around us that we might interact with, all in real time and with very high precision.
As a leader on the Perception team, you will be tasked with optimizing cutting-edge algorithms and programs, including state-of-the-art machine learning models. These systems must perform both in real-time on our robotaxi platform with minimal latency and with high throughput in the cloud for simulation and validation purposes. You will work closely with a talented group of engineers and researchers, and collaborate cross-functionally with teams across sensors, prediction, planning, and more. You will have access to world-class sensor data and cutting-edge infrastructure to test and validate your algorithms in real-world conditions.
