The Perception team at Zoox is responsible for creating the "eyes and ears" of our self-driving robots. Navigating safely and efficiently in complex environments requires detecting, classifying, tracking, and understanding a variety of attributes for all surrounding objects-all in real-time and with exceptional accuracy.
As a leader on the Perception team, you will drive the development of the semantic understanding of agents and objects that our robotaxis encounter in dynamic urban environments. This involves working with state-of-the-art machine learning models, which must operate in real-time on our robotaxi platform with minimal latency. You will collaborate closely with a highly skilled group of engineers and researchers, as well as teams across sensors, prediction, planning, and other areas. You'll also have access to world-class sensor data and cutting-edge infrastructure to test and validate your algorithms in real-world conditions.
