Job Description
Zoox is developing the first ground-up, fully autonomous vehicle fleet and the supporting ecosystem required to bring this technology to market. Sitting at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and design, Zoox aims to provide the next generation of mobility-as-a-service in urban environments. We're looking for top talent that shares our passion and wants to be part of a fast-moving and highly execution-oriented team.
As a Staff Compute & Controls Systems Engineer in Advanced Hardware Engineering (AHE), you will be responsible for developing and documenting requirements for compute and control system modules, while also driving key functional safety analyses for our compute platforms. You will work across departments at Zoox to build a system-level understanding of how AHE hardware enables critical operational functions, and you will lead the Compute Safety Analysis (FMEDA) that ensures those functions fail safely. You will work closely with hardware and software architects, and with design, safety, manufacturing, and test engineers, to ensure requirements are verified throughout the engineering development process. Your assessments will be critical to meeting milestones as we develop new generations of hardware.
