Job Description
Get to know the Team
The Data Science (Geo Vision) team at Grab focuses on improving the maps and building map-based intelligence such as localization, routing, travel time estimation, and traffic forecasting, that assist various Grab services like transportation, logistics, and pricing. We extensively use Computer Vision, NLP, Information Retrieval, and Text Mining along with conventional machine learning methods on a variety of signals including images, videos, text, sensor readings, GPS probes, etc to understand our locations and road networks. We also support the development of innovative, highly scalable, models through deep research and advanced analysis so that we make our products intelligent and delight our customers. We foster a culture where we enjoy raising the bar constantly for ourselves and others, and that strongly supports the freedom to explore and innovate.
Get to know the Role
