An autonomous trucking startup stays the (very long) course

(Bloomberg) — Nancy Sun, 37, is chief engineer at Ike, the autonomous-trucking startup named for President Eisenhower and his interstate highway system. Sun and her two co-founders, Jur van den Berg and Alden Woodrow, started the company in 2018 after leaving Uber Technologies Inc.’s autonomous-vehicle unit. An MIT-trained engineer, Sun has been working on self-driving trucks since she joined Anthony Levandowski’s Otto in 2016. Before that, she worked in the special projects group at Apple Inc. and before that for the defunct electric-motorcycle startup Mission Motors.
