About the company:

Zoox is transforming mobility-as-a-service by developing a fully autonomous, purpose-built fleet designed for AI to drive and humans to enjoy.

We are seeking a Senior Electrical Architecture Engineer to join our team. This individual will play a pivotal role in the development and evolution of electrical architecture concepts. The candidate will be responsible for breaking down product and imperative vehicle requirements into electrical architecture attributes, identifying different concepts to support the performance of these attributes, and using data-driven insights to develop decision matrices to support recommended solutions.

The ideal candidate should have a robust background in electrical architecture, electrical interfaces, physical design, communication network as well security concepts, functional partitioning concepts, and a solid understanding of low-voltage system energy control as well power up and shut down functionality and control . This role will require a blend of technical expertise, innovative thinking, and hands-on experience to deliver reliable and high-performance concept solutions for our products.

About Zoox

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 robotics, machine learning, 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.
