Embark Careers

What Drives Us

Embark’s path to a more efficient, safe, and rewarding trucking industry is rooted in our values.

Diversity & Inclusion

Our success relies on fresh ideas that lead to creative solutions. Embark consciously seeks top talent from the widest possible range of origins, orientations, and perspectives.

Collaborative Innovation

To us, innovation is a team sport. Embarkers learn by doing. We love bringing our collective expertise together for insights that will spark our next breakthrough.

Professional Growth

There's no better mentor than tangible accomplishment. We learn from each other and by crossing milestones together. As our self-driving fleet evolves, so do we.

Who We Are

Meet some of the people who drive us forward.

Gilbran

Head of Perception

Gilbran leads Embark’s Perception Team of computer vision, machine learning, and sensor fusion experts. Gil spent time working on space systems at NASA JPL and worked on Ford’s autonomous driving team before joining Embark in 2017, shortly after our Series A funding round.

Britische

Operations Team

As an operator for our SoCal fleet, Britische bridges efforts between our drivers and engineers when live-testing Embark's software. When not road-testing robot trucks, Britische writes TV scripts for fun.

Kwabena

Hardware Platform Team

Kwabena designs cutting-edge hardware for autonomous truck control. A proud CMU alum, he helped create OpenMV Cam: a small, affordable robotics system that performs real-time computer vision applications.

Jeff

Safety Driver

Jeff's been with Embark since the beginning, joining as our first trucker after running his own fleet. With 1 million+ miles under his belt, Jeff's insight is key to safely implementing our self-driving technology.

“Stepping out of a self-driving truck in the Arizona desert at sunset is so cool. Moments like these are an unexpected perk.”

Caleb Foust, Data Visualization Lead

“Deploying a fully autonomous truck today is like trying to land on the moon in the 60's. It's a huge technological challenge, it's never been done before, human lives are at stake, and when all is said and done, it will go down as a monumental human achievement. Neat!”

Soheil Koushan, Machine Learning Engineer, Perception

“Collegiality and collaboration are my favorite traits of Embark. Everyone here is eager to work across teams, brainstorm, and execute together, all in order to make highways safer.”

Jacqueline Frappia, Recruiter

“What makes me excited about being at Embark is the many different ways I can impact the organization. Whether that's organizing weekly Embark Ladies Book Club meetings or inviting graduate students to present on their research, I’m always looking for ways for my teammates to grow.”

Josephine Hovhannessian, Product

“Being a safety driver for Embark is a unique opportunity to see self-driving technology develop on the road. It's an exciting job where I get to shape the future of freight directly from the driver's seat.”

Paul Stewart, Safety Driver

“My role as an intern at Embark has allowed me to grow as a design engineer and expand my skill set. I get work on different engineering projects such as the Embark Universal Interface where prototyped solutions and made design decisions! Most of all I get to work with an incredible group of engineers and technicians that inspire me everyday.”

Yingying Chen, Engineering Intern
