Zoox · Foster City, CA
Senior Staff or Principal software engineer leading Zoox's freeway autonomy program, with the goal of driverless operation on freeways. Responsibilities include building the roadmap, identifying readiness gaps, developing driving algorithms, and mentoring engineers. Requires 10+ years of industry software experience and prior experience removing a human driver from an AV on freeways or highways.
Zoox is on an ambitious journey to develop a full-stack autonomous robotaxi solution, and freeways are the next frontier. We are looking for a Senior Staff or Principal Software Engineer who has played a significant role in removing the driver from an autonomous vehicle operating on freeways, and who can help Zoox navigate that same journey. You will bring deep technical expertise in a relevant autonomy domain — the specific domain is flexible — along with the hard-won judgment that comes from having taken a freeway driving program from supervised operation to driverless. This is a highly visible role with broad influence across the Autonomy organization.
Compensation: USD 340,000 – 493,000 per year salary
