Original job description

Reading view uses normalized posting text so exact evidence excerpts can be highlighted.

Our Mapping team is responsible for building the algorithms and tools necessary to keep Zoox vehicles well calibrated, always aware of their location in the world, and aware of their environment. Without precise calibration, localization, and mapping, our vehicles would be at a disadvantage in perceiving and reasoning about the surrounding world, and this is therefore foundational to enabling results from many other teams across Zoox. This work is critical to scaling autonomous driving safely and reliably. We are looking for engineers who are ambitious and excited about helping Zoox achieve its goals of delivering autonomous mobility. The Road Network Interface team owns road network data definition and data products for all consumers, including developer workflows, in-cluster training jobs, and on-vehicle real-time access. We are seeking a Software Engineer to develop the geometry algorithms behind these data products and the interfaces consumers use to access them - including network topology, road network data format, and validation. In this role, you will...
