Responsibilities

  • As a part of the Vehicle Motion, Comfort and Energy Efficiency team, you will be developing fast-running machine learning models for our electric autonomous vehicles, with focus on energy consumption and efficiency on a vehicle, subsystem and component level. As we grow our purpose-built robotaxi fleet and expand to different markets, your methodology and data-driven models will help us increase the accuracy of our vehicle range and efficiency predictions for various cities, drive cycles and other boundary conditions, as well as enable the creation of very fast online predictors (horizon models) in our software stack. This will allow for, not only better understanding and minimizing the energy consumption for a single vehicle, but also maximizing uptime and operational efficiency for our whole fleet.

We’re reinventing personal transportation — making the future safer, cleaner, and more enjoyable for everyone.
