At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. To do this, we start with our own community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization. Lyft AV brings the autonomous future to life by matching our community of riders with self-driving vehicles to meet their transportation needs today. The program is powered by a technical team innovating to build new features, experiment, and evolve approaches for emerging business needs. At the same time, we prioritize production quality because our customers put their trust in us for safety and reliability.
