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 300,000 autonomy-enabled 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.
Autonomy Data at May
May’s fleet of vehicles generate terabytes of data per vehicle per day, streamed during operations and offloaded during downtime. The Autonomy Data department has two primary responsibilities: defining and curating metrics for engineering and business stakeholders, and providing the infrastructure necessary to ingest, transform, store, and provide access to the datasets necessary to compute those metrics.
We are looking for a detail and results-oriented senior engineer to join our team that provides data infrastructure throughout our engineering and operations orgs. We envision a performant and commercially scalable data platform that enables data scientists, robotics engineers, and non-technical users to make data-driven decisions about what problems to solve next and measure their impact.
Build new data pipelines starting from the vehicle, reduce the time it takes to get impactful metrics, create automated infrastructure to accelerate engineers on their path to creating new metrics, create infrastructure to observer and measure the data flowing through our pipelines, reduce unit per vehicle necessary to operate a site, create web interfaces (UIs and APIs) to provide stakeholders with methods to access and explore our data. These are the kinds of problems you would be solving as part of our team.
Experience with robotics, automotive engineering, or the autonomous vehicles industry is not required! We value engineers from a diverse set of industry backgrounds, and your ability to solve difficult problems in a timely manner is what we’re after.
