<div class="content-intro"><p>Kodiak AI, Inc. (Nasdaq: KDK), founded in 2018, is a leader in Physical AI, developing driverless technology that powers machines that move. Its Kodiak Driver is a vehicle-agnostic autonomous driving system that combines AI-powered software with modular hardware. Today it operates in long-haul trucking, industrial trucking, and defense. In 2024, Kodiak launched commercial Driver-as-a-Service operations with no one in the cab, and plans to launch driverless long-haul service between Dallas and Houston by the end of 2026.<br><br>Kodiak has partnered with many of the biggest names in freight, including Bosch for scaled hardware production, AWS, and leading customers including Atlas Energy Solutions, IKEA, Bridgestone, Werner Enterprises, C.R. England, Roehl Transport, and General Dynamics Land Systems.</p></div><p class="p1" style="line-height: 1.4;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Join Kodiak as a Behavior Planning Intern! As an intern on our Motion Planning team, you will work on developing core decision-making and motion planning algorithms that drive our autonomous trucks. Intern projects may include improving strategies for navigating complex highway merges, optimizing lane change behaviors, and refining low-speed behavior in industrial operations. This role offers a hands-on opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge AV technology while gaining valuable experience in real-world autonomous driving scenarios.</span></p> <p class="p2" style="line-height: 1.4;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><strong>In this role, you will:</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Receive mentorship from top-level robotics engineers.</span></li> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Advance a state-of-the-art autonomous trucking platform.</span></li> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Deploy code on autonomous trucks operating in the real world.
