Amazon Scout devices are safe, the size of a small cooler, and roll along sidewalks at a walking pace. Amazon Scout currently delivers packages to customers in four locations across the US, the company said in its blog.
The team in Helsinki will work closely with the Amazon Scout research and development labs in Seattle, US and teams in Cambridge, UK and Tübingen, Germany to develop 3D software to simulate the complexity of real life and ensure Scout can safely navigate around obstacles while making deliveries.
“From the local jobs we bring, to the local people we employ, train and upskill—our business is made up of people from the communities in which we operate. Across Europe, Amazon is creating thousands of quality jobs and investing billions in local economies. We created 20,000 jobs in 2020, growing our employee population to more than 135,000 across 15 European countries,” the company said.
The Amazon Scout team in Helsinki will grow over time.
