Job Description:

Starship Technologies is revolutionizing deliveries with autonomous robots. These robots are designed to deliver food, groceries, and packages across college campuses and neighborhoods in minutes. Starship has now completed millions of autonomous deliveries to date, traveled millions of miles, and is currently doing more than 140k road crossings each day. Our contribution to society includes reducing congestion, and pollution, providing zero-emissions deliveries, increasing the quality of life for residents, empowering seniors and disabled people, and enabling affordable delivery for local businesses. With over 300 locations in 6 countries worldwide, we have brought a series of world firsts as we launched robotic delivery in new cities, areas, and countries. Our deliveries are profitable due to significant technology investment, and combined with substantial commercial momentum and interest, expanding to new partners and locations has become the beating heart of our growth. We’re looking for a Mapping Team Lead to join our Autonomous Driving team. Mapping Team is one of the three pillars of our ability to expand and scale with confidence – they are responsible for, critically, high-precision maps that make our robots smarter, safer and faster. This is a unique opportunity to lead, shape, and drive a critical part of how we adapt robotics to fit, suit, and serve local communities in countries across the world.

Advocate for automation and scalable long-term solutions
Team Growth & Development: Grow, mentor, and develop a high-impact team with strong ownership, engagement, and clarity of purpose
Lead the evolution of team responsibilities as Starship changes and as automation changes processes

Requirements:

Experience in data analysis (including exploratory analysis) and using data for decision-making and forecasting
Ability to think strategically, predict outcomes, and guide teams to adapt effectively
Proven team leadership experience: mentoring, growing, and motivating a team to deliver impact
A proven ability to thrive under pressure, tight deadlines, and changing conditions
Exceptional prioritisation skills across very different tasks and outcomes
Excellent communicator with strong relationship-building skills, able to align, inspire, and collaborate across teams

What we offer:

Opportunity to lead a key scaling team, working to expand industry-leading self-driving delivery robot technology on a uniquely large scale, creating history
Opportunity to shape and build a unique system for expansion, and to grow the team around it, including working with sister engineering teams in Autonomous Driving to improve the process of expansion
Work with extremely passionate and motivated people across the company in operations, engineering and commercial
Immerse yourself in the world of technology and innovation
Endless opportunities to learn from our inspirational, talented team members across the globe
