Come build the future

Our mission is to solve self driving cars while delivering shippable intermediaries.

We're building the robotics stack that will solve self driving cars, then eventually scales to all of robotics. We own our stack from shipping state of the art machine learning models trained on our own infrastructure, building the operating system, designing the hardware, and manufacturing it.

Today, our fleet is the second largest after Tesla, and it's growing every month as more of the 10+ million compatible cars on the road come online. We will win by continuing to ship a better product and better driving to our users. No hype, just shipping constant incremental progress until your comma reliably drives you to Taco Bell.

comma is 25 people across three teams:

The autonomy team builds the autonomous agent software along with all of the infrastructure needed for that.

The product team designs and manufactures the product, including the hardware, low level software needed to run the agent software, as well the app.

The operations team builds and maintains company infrastructure (money, people, logistics, etc).

The operations and product teams work together to ship you the comma 3X, and the autonomy and product teams ship openpilot to run on your comma 3X.

All jobs are on site in San Diego, CA. One meeting a week, two great meals a day, and solving self driving cars. Perks: - Chef-prepared lunch and dinner - On-site gym and yoga studio - 24/7 access to the comma fleet of cars - Health, dental, and vision insurance - Flexible time off

OPEN POSITIONS

• Designer: own the comma aesthetic and user experience // challenge
• Electronics Engineer: design + ship hardware like the comma 3X and comma body // challenge
• Software Engineer (Web): own the comma web and mobile experience // challenge: get a web bounty merged
• Software Engineer (Systems): work on systems and infrastructure for openpilot // challenge: get a bounty merged
• Internship: all teams accept interns year-round // challenge: get on the leaderboard or solve some bounties
• Pick & Place Operator: run the comma factory's circuit board line // Relevant experience required instead of a challenge
• Technician: maintain the comma compute cluster and comma fleet // Requirements: have built computers, good debugging skills, and detail orientedness

Applying

1. Technical challenge Choose any of the challenges from the leaderboard or bounties, solve it, then reach into work@comma.ai. 2. Phone screen Typically, we do two phone calls. A quick intro and screen, then an in-depth technical interview with a division head. 3. Paid Micro-internship We'll fly you out to meet the team and work on a real problem for a few days. In most cases, the project will be scoped such that you'll ship it to real users by the end. If all goes well, we'll make you a full-time job offer.
