About Kodiak Robotics

Since 2018, Kodiak Robotics has led the charge in autonomous ground transportation, blending cutting-edge AI with a mission for safer, smarter travel. We’re crafting a top-tier tech stack for driverless long-haul trucking, featuring a sleek, modular sensor-pod design that boosts perception and scalability. Today, we haul freight daily across the Sun Belt and Permian Basin for clients like Atlas Energy, while also powering autonomous solutions for the U.S. Department of Defense.

Our AI thrives on vision—decoding the world, spotting patterns, and adapting on the fly. We’re seeking engineers at all levels to build high-performance vision models that shine in real-world complexity. Passionate about AI that sees and understands at scale? This is your shot.

What You’ll Do

• Create deep learning models for large-scale vision applications.
• Build scalable training pipelines for fast, reliable AI performance.
• Dig into massive image and video datasets to supercharge our AI.
• Explore self-supervised and representation learning to make models more adaptable.
• Team up with engineers to bring vision models to life in production.

What You Bring

• BS, MS, or PhD in AI, Computer Science, or a related field—or 2-3 years of industry experience.
• Proven skills in crafting high-performance vision deep learning models.
• Mastery of Python and tools like PyTorch or TensorFlow.
• Solid grasp of generalization techniques for vision AI.
• A drive to push computer vision forward with AI.

What We Offer

• Pay: $150,000–$250,000 annually + bonuses (twice yearly) + equity. (Exact range depends on location, experience, and skills—your recruiter will share specifics.)
• Benefits: Top-notch medical, dental, and vision (Kaiser, Anthem, Guardian—including infertility coverage), plus disability and life insurance.
• Time Off: Flexible PTO and generous parental leave.
• Perks: Mountain View, CA office (dog-friendly!) with free catered lunch, stocked kitchen, and EV charging.
• Wellness: Headspace, One Medical, Gympass, Spring Health, and more.
• Extras: 401(k), commuter benefits, FSA, HSA, referral bonuses, and patent incentives.

Who We Are

At Kodiak, we’re a diverse crew united by big goals, working in a safe, collaborative space where harassment has no place. We’re all about equal opportunity—welcoming everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, or veteran status.

Note: Some roles may require extra eligibility checks due to sensitive operations or national security rules. If needed, we’ll explore alternative roles or visa sponsorship for eligible candidates at our discretion.
