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


The Team Lead, Fleet Support Operations, plays a vital leadership role in supporting the efficiency, reliability, and readiness of the Zoox autonomous vehicle fleet. This individual oversees and prioritizes incoming work requests, coordinates scheduling for repairs, reworks, maintenance, and testing, and ensures all necessary parts, tools, and documentation are in place before work begins. Acting as the operational hub for fleet service activities, the Fleet Support Specialist maintains real-time visibility into fleet health through dashboard monitoring and direct involvement with the technician and engineering teams. They work closely with engineering, quality, logistics, and program management teams to streamline the handoff of both hardware and software from development into operations.
