In this role, you will lead Zoox Vehicle Operations, with a data-driven and operational mindset, for the testing and validation efforts using our R&D Fleet of robotaxis while also overseeing a team of service vehicles. You will also be an integral Fleet Operations leadership team member. This will include the management of Vehicle Operations FTEs and Contractors while identifying, building, and driving safety and efficiency processes related to overall vehicle operations for our robotaxi robots.
