Base Salary Range


In this role, you will:
  • Set technical direction for a ~40-engineer org, shaping the systems that will enable us to grow from dozens of vehicles to thousands of robots and ultimately millions of riders.
  • Provide architectural leadership across frontend, backend, infrastructure, and AI investments — ensuring reliability, scalability, and technical excellence.
  • Act as a multiplier: define and reinforce the engineering culture, raise the bar through mentorship, and build a deep bench of talent to accelerate our growth.
  • Operate with autonomy and impact: you’ll have broad latitude to focus where you see the greatest opportunity, whether that’s driving AI/ML adoption, designing fault-tolerant distributed systems, or evolving developer productivity.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with leaders across Zoox to ensure our tooling ecosystem remains a competitive advantage as we scale.


    • Qualifications
  • 14+ YOE and Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in an engineering, mathematics, or related field.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity, set direction, make effective short/long-term tradeoffs, and iterate on solutions.
  • Experience with system design and building products from scratch.
  • Development experience with a modern web-based stack, distributed systems, modern cloud infrastructure, C++, and databases.


    • Bonus Qualifications
  • Advanced degree or certification
  • Experience operating mission critical APIs and services at scale.
