We're Cruise, a self-driving service designed for the cities we love.

We’re building the world’s most advanced self-driving vehicles to safely connect people to the places, things, and experiences they care about. We believe self-driving vehicles will help save lives, reshape cities, give back time in transit, and restore freedom of movement for many.

In our cars, you’re free to be yourself. It’s the same here at Cruise. We’re creating a culture that values the experiences and contributions of all of the unique individuals who collectively make up Cruise, so that every employee can do their best work. 

Cruise is committed to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment, both in our workplace and in our products. If you are looking to play a part in making a positive impact in the world by advancing the revolutionary work of self-driving cars, come join us. Even if you might not meet every requirement, we strongly encourage you to apply. You might just be the right candidate for us.

Within Cruise, the In-Car Experience (ICE) team builds the environment that makes riders feel safe and entertained, starting from the in-cabin display (what you see and what you hear). We’re developing an autonomous riding experience that has only ever been imagined, opening up new forms of work and play while getting to your destination! (Think: everything you could do on an airplane if you had more space and no one around to disturb, and much more.)
