About the role

Mission Control is responsible for ensuring each trip requested by a rider is successful. Mission Control is similar to air traffic control but for our fleet of autonomous vehicles.

They are responsible for looking at service operations both holistically and at the individual vehicle level to identify ways to maximize safety and service efficiency, including real-time management of fleet and crew allocation.

You will have a front-row seat to the operational complexities of realizing autonomous mobility and the chance to contribute to the future.
