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.
