Job Description
On the Motion Planning team at Zoox, you’ll have the unique opportunity to tackle the cutting-edge problem of improving the robot's driving behaviors on public roads. Specifically, within the Mission Progress team, you will focus on one of the most open-ended problems: pickup and dropoff. Pickup/dropoff can range from simple maneuvers on quiet suburban streets to incredibly complex and ambiguous driving scenarios that even humans have difficulty navigating, like airports and unstructured hotel entrances.
Getting pickup/dropoff maneuvers to be safe and reliable is not only a technical challenge but also a way for robotaxi services to eventually distinguish themselves in their user experience. Pickup/dropoff is the first and last thing a rider experiences and has the potential to leave lasting impressions on the rider. This means you will work closely with UI/UX and product to engineer solutions that are not just safe but elegant in how they handle the different human considerations in the pickup/dropoff process.
