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.
Test Engineers @ May
Test Engineers serve as key stakeholders in the R&D process, planning and executing tests for the software and hardware that goes into our autonomous vehicles. May uses a variety of requirements-based testing techniques to accomplish this. Since we operate in a relatively new space, Test Engineers often have to get creative to get the job done, pioneering new processes along the way. Our testing touches both R&D for future systems and quality validation of deployed products. The Test Engineer will report to our Test and Validation Manager.
