Listen now
Description
Building a safe autonomous vehicle isn’t just about installing sensors and programming software – it’s about building a safety culture, operationalizing safety processes, and communicating safety approaches to the public. It’s a massive undertaking, and even harder to translate into terms that most people can understand, which is why we made it a priority to catch up with Nat Beuse, Chief Safety Officer at Aurora, during TRB ARTS. In this episode, Greg Rogers and guest co-host Sophie Jantz speak with Nat Beuse about: -A day in the life of Nat Beuse as Aurora’s Chief Safety Officer -Why Aurora publicly published its AV Safety Case Framework -The importance of a strong safety culture, safety management systems, and operationalizing safety across an AV company -Voluntary standards development -The past, present, and future of the AV industry Resources Learn more about Aurora here: https://aurora.tech/ See Aurora’s public safety case framework here: https://safetycaseframework.aurora.tech/gsn Follow Nat on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nat-beuse-9691baa As always, you can follow The Mobility Podcast on Twitter: @MobilityPodcast, @MoveGreg, @Pete_Gould, @SmarterTranspo.
