Zoox

Every time Zoox enters a new city, the data starts pouring in. Road geometry, traffic light timing, environmental details, and raw information accumulating at scale. But data on its own doesn’t drive decisions. Someone has to understand how to extract information and insights, organizing data into a digestible format. That’s where Eric Chu comes in. He joined Zoox seven years ago as a Software Engineer in motion planning before building the data science team and systems that turn raw data into actionable insights. Today, as Director, Data Science, Eric and his team solve open-ended problems by drawing on mathematics, computer science, AI, machine learning, and statistics, transforming what the road gives us into insights that shape how we build. 💬 “Growing into a leadership role is like music; there’s a difference between understanding the theory, how chords fit, what the various meters are, rhythms, and polyrhythms, and actually playing the music. One involves just your brain; the other involves your whole being. For anyone specifically entering the field of data science, my advice is to become what I call a third-culture person. Learn to understand both the technical and human worlds, and to bridge them.” Learn more about Eric: https://lnkd.in/gXMijHRD #ThisIsZoox #DataScience #AutonomousVehicles #Robotaxi

The Zoox robotaxi understands the world around it as a continuous, 360-degree environment. This is especially helpful when navigating fast-moving scenarios like this one. #CodeToRoad #ThisIsZoox #AutonomousVehicles #Robotaxi

Keeping an eye out for opening car doors is part of the journey when you're cycling. Our robotaxi's ground-up design includes doors that slide open instead of swinging out, giving our riders ease of access and cyclists one less thing to think about. 🚴💨 #Robotaxi #AutonomousVehicles #ThisIsZoox #Bicycle
