R&D Manager - CDI Toulouse

À propos

EasyMile is a global leader in autonomous technology that powers heavy-duty driverless vehicles for airports, logistics, and industrial sites worldwide.

Since 2014, its internationally-certified software has driven autonomously in 400+ locations in more than 30 countries, over 1,000,000km.

This advanced stack enables precise vehicle control, real-time decision-making, and seamless integration with existing infrastructure. A combination of LiDAR, cameras, and radar sensors allow vehicles to accurately perceive their surroundings and navigate complex environments. EasyMile prioritises delivering safety and efficiency to its clients.

Having built its expertise in passenger transport, the company is now focused on autonomous towing which has resulted in the development of two solutions: the EZTow, a driverless tow tractor, and the EZDolly, an autonomous cargo dolly.

With several mass operations around the world EasyMile was the first to deploy fully driverless at Level 4 of autonomous driving and has the highest number of remotely supervised operations (10+) on the market to date. It is also the first autonomous vehicle solutions provider to be ISO 9001:2015 certified.

EasyMile has over 150 employees in 2 locations (Toulouse, Berlin).

We are looking for highly motivated people to build the road ahead and invent solutions to challenges never met before. Beyond excellent technical skills, we are looking for the right attitude: ambition, creativity and perseverance. Highlighting strong values such as innovation, passion, excellence, trust and team spirit, EasyMile’s team keeps pushing boundaries to invent the future of driverless technology.
