Kodiak Robotics was founded in 2018 to develop autonomous technology that carries freight forward—so people, partners, and the planet thrive. Navigating highway environments present vastly different challenges than urban streets. Kodiak’s experienced team has developed the industry’s most advanced technology stack purpose-built for long-haul trucks.
Don Burnette, CEO & Co-Founder of Kodiak Robotics, talks about building a smarter autonomous trucking carrier.
From the beginning, we’ve focused on building self-driving technology for long-haul trucks. And always with an eye on deployment, not demos. This discipline has allowed us to make rapid progress. Just two years after we received our first truck, we started making disengage-free deliveries.
Build procedures to support responsible decision-making. Reinforce safe choices as a community. Safety first always; no breaks, no exceptions.
Seek the truth, especially when it’s inconvenient. Speak with passion, but respect diverse points of view to move towards execution.
Focus, efficiency and elegance. Learn from experience. Solve meaningful problems. Behave responsibly.
Seek out best-in-class collaborators. Embrace our ecosystem of diversity—from fellow Kodiak-ers, and customers to the people we share the roads with.
Deliver seamless experiences wherever possible. Build trust through action. Consistent and constant accountability.
