Autonomous vehicles have some of the largest, most complex software ever shipped in a safety-critical environment. Solving that problem is one of the most exciting technical challenges of our lifetime. As a Systems Test Engineer on our System Behavior Analysis Autonomous team, you will play a critical role in the development of Zoox's autonomous platform, working with a broad set of engineering teams across Zoox. You will help triage and root cause the issues identified during testing and real-world operations. You will also produce reports and insights that inform leadership on the overall quality and influence of engineering decisions. Your ability to distill complex systems and root cause issues will be crucial to producing a safe and stable vehicle platform. In this role, you will: Utilize data analytics to analyze and diagnose a wide range of system faults and errors related to perception, planner, and other AI software from both on-road testing and system simulations. Effectively categorize and prioritize issues based on severity, urgency, and potential impact on safety and performance by working collaboratively with cross-functional teams (engineering, software, testing). Identify trends in system failures and propose preventative measures to improve overall system safety and robustness by producing clear and concise reports of system issues, troubleshooting steps, and root cause analysis. Be hands-on, lead by example, and develop tools and workflows to drive improvements for both quality and quantity aspects of the triage. Demonstrate operational agility by quickly adapting to changing priorities, managing multiple tasks simultaneously, and implementing effective solutions in dynamic environments. Qualifications Bachelor's or Masters degree in Computer Science or STEM-related field Minimum of 5 years of experience in systems troubleshooting and diagnostics, preferably in the automotive or em

Our Ride and Fleet Backend team is looking for a Software Engineer to build out the Fleet Dispatch System to efficiently dispatch missions to our robots.
