About the role
May Mobility's standard text
May Mobility is transforming cities through autonomous technology to create a safer, greener, more accessible world. Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, May develops and deploys autonomous vehicles (AVs) powered by our innovative Multi-Policy Decision Making (MPDM) technology that literally reimagines the way AVs think.
Our vehicles do more than just drive themselves - they provide value to communities, bridge public transit gaps and move people where they need to go safely, easily and with a lot more fun. We’re building the world’s best autonomy system to reimagine transit by minimizing congestion, expanding access and encouraging better land use in order to foster more green, vibrant and livable spaces. Since our founding in 2017, we’ve given more than 500,000 autonomous rides to real people around the globe.
And we’re just getting started. We’re hiring people who share our passion for building the future, today, solving real-world problems and seeing the impact of their work. Join us.
Essential Responsibilities
- Train, Integrate and Test Machine Learning models for on-vehicle Autonomy software
- Optimize and Monitor on-vehicle software for maximum reliability and minimum latency
- Coordinate and execute on-vehicle tests to validate performance of Autonomous Vehicle software in real-world scenarios
- Diagnose and root-cause issues reported by commercial operations through the May Field Response process
- Design and oversee data collection strategies to address ML model deficiencies
- Develop tools and visualizations to enable support engineers to analyze performance of behavior and control subsystems from field data
