At Serve Robotics, we’re reimagining how things move in cities. Our personable sidewalk robot is our vision for the future. It’s designed to take deliveries away from congested streets, make deliveries available to more people, and benefit local businesses.
The Serve fleet has been delighting merchants, customers, and pedestrians along the way in Los Angeles while doing commercial deliveries. We’re looking for talented individuals who will grow robotic deliveries from surprising novelty to efficient ubiquity.
Who We Are
We are tech industry veterans in software, hardware, and design who are pooling our skills to build the future we want to live in. We are solving real-world problems leveraging robotics, machine learning and computer vision, among other disciplines, with a mindful eye towards the end-to-end user experience. Our team is agile, diverse, and driven. We believe that the best way to solve complicated dynamic problems is collaboratively and respectfully.
What you'll be doing
Serve’s Machine Learning (ML) platform is an important core part of our autonomy. It empowers us to train and test all kinds of ML models for various real-world tasks. We also use it to mine useful data in terabytes of sensor recordings that we capture every day.
We are looking for an engineer who will join our Machine Learning Infrastructure (ML Infra) team on a mission to build and improve this platform. We use Apache Beam (Dataflow) for our pipelines, Bazel as our build system, BigQuery via dbt, MongoDB and GCS for storage, Kubernetes for service deployment, and Airflow for our workflow management.
