At Zoox, we believe that Robot Industrial Design transcends mere aesthetic styling—it's about innovative systems thinking, captivating storytelling, and groundbreaking world-building. We are a team of visionaries driven by the belief that design has the power to fundamentally transform how people navigate their environments. Starting from first principles, we are pioneering a new category of mobility that is autonomous, human-centered, and conceived entirely from the ground up.
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Studio Engineer to join our forward-thinking team and play a crucial role in shaping the future of Zoox's autonomous vehicle design. As a Studio Engineer at Zoox, you’ll not only lead collaborations across our design and engineering teams, but you will also be at the forefront of transforming imaginative concepts into functional, production-ready products. Here, we break free from legacy constraints, instead embracing first-principles problem-solving to rethink assumptions and create revolutionary solutions. This is an incredible opportunity to be an integral part of a dynamic design process where your contributions will ensure our vehicles are not only visually stunning but also exceed our rigorous standards for safety, performance, and functionality. If you’re driven by innovation and eager to make a meaningful impact on the future of mobility, we invite you to join us and help shape a new era of transportation. Together, let’s redefine how the world moves.
In this role, you will...
Collaborate with designers and digital modelers to develop technically feasible vehicle concepts, guiding the evolution of early designs using first-principles engineering while preserving design intent for downstream development.
Partner with advanced and production engineering to translate technical requirements and constraints into clear design guidance. Ensure designs are viable, production-ready, and support the transition from concept to production.
Evaluate concepts for feasibility, manufacturability, and cost. Provide engineering insights to optimize designs for program goals.
Ensure conceptual and production designs comply with regulatory, safety, and certification requirements by collaborating with homologation, policy, and safety teams.
Own the organization and management of master-level 3D surface data, design CAD, and supporting documentation used for prototype development and engineering evaluation.
Monitor industry trends, technologies, and best practices in automotive design and engineering. Develop new tools and workflows to enhance cross-functional collaboration and streamline design-to-production processes.
Qualifications
10+ years of experience in automotive design and engineering.
Expert knowledge of automotive design, engineering, manufacturing processes, materials, fabrication techniques, quality, and supply chain.
Expert-level proficiency in CAD and PLM Catia/3DX software and automotive industry best practices.
Exceptional communication and collaboration skills with a proven ability to lead technical discussions, influence cross-functional teams, and mentor junior engineers and designers.
Bonus Qualifications
