Job Description

Zoox is on an ambitious journey to develop a full-stack autonomous mobility solution for cities and safely deploy such a robotaxi solution. Zoox's System Design and Mission Assurance (SDMA) team is responsible for constructing the safety case and validating that our vehicles are safe enough to be deployed for autonomous driving. We play a foundational role for the success of the company.

We are seeking an experienced Systems Fleet Validation Lead engineer to champion the scoping, execution, and analysis for fleet driving campaigns. This is where the rubber actually meets the road. Our fleet of test vehicles is an important asset for collecting data for massive log replay simulation efforts, evaluating the impact of hardware changes on system validation arguments, and delivering as a piece of the final validation evidence for shipping a fully driverless service. 

You will be leading an effort to analyze the Operational Design Domain (ODD), define mileage collection requirements, monitor collection efforts, unblock obstacles to efficient mileage collection, and analyze both metrics and important findings coming in from the field. The ideal candidate will leverage statistical and technical expertise to deliver pragmatic and optimal solutions for the business.

You will be part of an organization with strong leadership and a transparent, respectful culture that enables you to reach your full potential. This highly visible position offers opportunities for career growth through demonstrated achievement.

In this role, you will:

  • Analyze the Operational Design Domain (ODD) and service duty cycle requirements to propose fleet mileage collection requirements for validation campaigns.
  • Develop new pragmatic statistical and technical arguments to optimize data collection efforts so as to balance the needs of the Zoox Safety Case with the realities and challenges of operations and business needs
  • Manage a small team of engineers
  • Produce dashboards for tracking mileage collection and tracking the resolution of findings coming in from the field
  • Troubleshoot blockers or inefficiencies with mileage collection efforts
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with system safety, data science, fleet operations, and software teams to execute campaigns and act on findings
  • Perform data analysis and report test results. Maintain traceability between requirements, test cases, and results. Define and develop automated data extraction tools to streamline analysis and reporting

Qualifications

  • B.S. or higher degree in Automotive Engineering, Aerospace, Robotics, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a relevant field
  • 7+ years of industry experience working on complex system validation campaigns. Past technical test experience is a must.
  • Management experience
  • Proficiency in basic statistics and probability
  • Experience with test scripting and data analysis languages (Python and SQL preferred)
  • Ability to manage ambiguity and drive progress independently
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work well with cross-functional teams

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience with Linux Systems
  • Experience in the Autonomous Vehicle Domain
