Job Description

Mapbox is the leading real-time location platform for a new generation of location-aware businesses. Mapbox is the only platform that equips organizations with the full set of tools to power the navigation of people, packages, and vehicles everywhere. More than 3.5 million registered developers have chosen Mapbox because of the platform’s flexibility, security and privacy compliance. Organizations use Mapbox applications, data, SDKs and APIs to create customized and immersive experiences that delight their customers. 

What We Do

The team is developing 3D Live Navigation, an advanced navigation system that enhances traditional maps by integrating high-resolution 3D lane models, real-time sensor data, environmental models, and dynamic lighting conditions. We are leveraging feedback from millions of vehicles and aerial imagery to create a detailed and immersive 3D navigation experience. Additionally, we are working on integration with in-vehicle sensors and ADAS to provide precise lane-level guidance, hazard warnings, and improved situational awareness, helping drivers navigate complex roads more safely and efficiently.

We are looking for smart, fast-learning team players to help revolutionize 3D Live Navigation. Join us in creating high-resolution 3D maps, integrating real-time data, and enhancing driver safety for more immersive navigation experience. As a Software Development Engineer II, you'll play a key role in developing and optimizing 3D Live Navigation.
