About the team
The Last Mile Delivery Automation organization at Amazon is pioneering the
development of autonomous delivery solutions to revolutionize the final leg of
package delivery. LMDA combines robotics, autonomous systems, and artificial

vans to last hundred yards robots, with plans to begin initial pilots by late
2025.

Within LMDA, the Vehicle Integration team serves as the crucial bridge between
autonomous software systems and physical vehicle platforms. We are responsible

systems with the vehicle's drive-by-wire capabilities, sensor suite, and
computing infrastructure. Working closely with both autonomy software teams and
