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.


Zoox’s Accounting Team is looking for a dynamic, experienced leader to join our fast-paced and evolving business. This Senior Accounting Manager position is a leadership role that will be responsible for accounting, reporting, and strategic activities.  This role will also lead cross-functional, multi-year projects that have high visibility and strategic importance to finance and operational organizations.

The successful candidate will possess deep technical accounting and reporting knowledge and will have experience driving strategic cross-functional projects. Demonstrated experience accomplishing complex challenges will be expected and will be an ongoing requirement for this role.  Many of our candidates for this position will have held similar roles in larger public companies or held a director-level position with a Big 4 public accounting firm serving Fortune 500 clients. 

This position will be responsible for supporting all aspects of Accounting Policy and Reporting including supporting our operational accounting teams by researching and applying US and International accounting standards to unique business transactions, developing and updating formal accounting policies, and managing all aspects of communications to our stakeholders. This role will require significant collaboration with internal stakeholders within Zoox and with Amazon.

Zoox is developing fully autonomous vehicles and the supporting ecosystem required to bring the technology to market at scale. 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 believe the transition to self-driving vehicles requires a combination of elegant vision and uncompromising execution.

If you are excited about solving difficult problems and the opportunity to help define what an autonomous vehicle can be, we want to hear from you!
