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.


At Zoox, our Logistics team is dedicated to ensuring seamless, scalable, and efficient processes that enable the timely delivery of components critical to vehicle manufacturing and service operations. We value collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to operational excellence. This role provides the opportunity to lead transformative logistics programs at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain, directly supporting the transition from R&D and pilot builds into high-volume automotive production.

You will be part of a passionate team building and standardizing logistics systems that ensure readiness for scale while driving continuous improvement across inbound, warehouse, and outbound operations. Our culture thrives on openness, shared learning, and supportive risk-taking while striving to make cities safer, smarter, and more sustainable. This role offers significant leadership, ownership, and professional growth opportunities in a fast-paced, high-impact environment. 

In this role, you will:

  • Drive cross-functional teams to achieve production ramp and logistics readiness, translating engineering designs, supply chain plans, and warehouse concepts into scalable material flow and logistics operations.
  • Drive resolution for day-to-day logistics and material flow issues, escalating roadblocks as necessary, and ensuring strong cross-functional alignment.

  • Establish critical logistics performance metrics to monitor material availability and logistics performance, and deliver regular updates to stakeholders to maintain visibility and alignment.

  • Define and manage logistics processes and operating procedures to ensure all teams clearly understand deliverables, timelines, and risks, enabling clear cross-functional communication and execution across sites.

  • Support vehicle production from initial concept and prototyping through to final, high-volume manufacturing.

  • Requires regular travel between Bay Area facilities, alongside 10–20% nationwide travel to additional Zoox sites to oversee initiatives and support regional logistics operations.

  • Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, or a related field, with 5+ years of TPM, logistics, or manufacturing experience in high-scale industries (e.g., automotive, aerospace, electronics).

  • Proven expertise in leading complex, cross-functional logistics programs from design through implementation, can manage schedules, track milestones, and mitigate risks.

  • Strong track record of driving organizational change and adopting new standards, backed by exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills to align and influence teams at all levels.

  • Robust analytical capabilities with practical experience in process mapping, defining KPIs, and building operational dashboards to monitor performance and solve complex operational challenges.

  • Bonus Qualifications:

  • Master’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, or Logistics, in addition to professional certifications such as PMP, PgMP, Lean, or Six Sigma.

  • Deep knowledge of warehouse optimization, material flow, logistics engineering, and lean manufacturing principles, paired with hands-on experience using ERP and WMS platforms (e.g., SAP).

  • Strong technical ability using SQL, Python, or simulation tools to drive optimizations and support data-driven decision-making.

  • Comprehensive knowledge of warehouse safety and quality standards, including EHS guidelines, OSHA regulations, ISO 9001, and IATF 16949 requirements.
