Zoox is looking for a system engineering intern to join our Systems Design and Mission Assurance (SDMA) team. The SDMA team mission is to construct the Safety Case and validate that our vehicles are safe enough to be deployed for autonomous driving.
In this role, you will work with a cross functional team to evaluate the autonomous vehicle’s response to various electrical/mechanical faults in the motion control system, and develop safety mechanisms to ensure its safe operation. Your work will be highly hands-on and directly contribute to the safe deployment of our novel autonomous vehicle.
Your work will involve conducting various types of system safety analyses (e.g. fault injection simulations, log data analysis), developing requirements, detailed design and supporting HIL/on-vehicle testing activities.

Compensation
The monthly salary range for this position is $6,500 to $9,500. Compensation will vary based on role, degree level and type, and benefits will be offered based on eligibility. Additional benefits may include medical insurance, 401k, and a housing stipend.

That offer of employment will be conditioned upon, among other things, an Applicant’s ability to show proof of vaccination status. Please note the Company provides reasonable accommodations in accordance with applicable state, federal, and local laws.
