Cruise is recognizing Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, as an annual holiday. In light of the recent egregious acts of violence committed against Black Americans and the ensuing protests that continue nationwide, many of us are striving to deepen our understanding of Black history and take action in support of racial equity. We encourage Cruisers to use this time to reflect on how we can support racial justice and better understand the lived experience of the Black community. Read the recent pledge our CEO Dan Ammann signed on behalf of Cruise, along with a number of Silicon Valley leaders, to take action against racial injustice.

In honor of #BHM, we’re highlighting the stories of black leaders at Cruise who are pushing Cruise and the autonomous vehicle industry to new heights. “It’s exciting to work at a company that’s bringing self-driving technology into the world. We took on the challenge of testing in a city as dynamic as San Francisco. That tells you a lot about our culture.” Waverly Heurtelou has seen in a lot during her two-year tenure at Cruise. She started as a Recruiting Coordinator and now travels the country seeking top tier university talent to join our Hardware team. “Working with a dynamic sensor-suite, getting hands-on experience with an all-electric vehicle, and being part of a new industry are some of the reasons hardware engineers want to work here.” Want to learn more about what it’s like to work at Cruise?

“Since this is a new industry, we're establishing methods for verifying the safety and performance of an AV. As a test engineer, I need to coordinate with a variety of teams to ensure we’re defining testing methods the right way because we’re setting a standard.” Alessandro Lira has had to chart his own path forward working in a role and for a company that didn’t exist a handful of years ago. In addition to the leadership skills he’s gained as a test engineer in a burgeoning industry, he’s also grown as the Co-Chair for the Cruisers of the African Diaspora ERG. He works directly with senior leaders across the company from several departments, including Government Affairs, Recruiting, and Engineering, to ensure Cruise is a supportive environment where all employees can thrive.
