About the role

At Zoox, we have set the goal to provide our customers with the highest level of safety while using our fully autonomous vehicles. You will work with a team of world-class engineers with diverse backgrounds such as robotics, controls, simulation, and vehicle engineering to enable our vehicle to deliver outstanding energy efficiency and range in service.
Operating a fleet of robotaxis at scale requires balancing performance, cost, and energy usage at the time - in this position, you will spearhead energy management and energy-efficient architectures across the vehicle platform and robotaxi fleet. You'll collaborate on electrical powertrains, high-voltage batteries, thermal architectures, and low-voltage

Develop holistic engineering and product strategies for vehicle energy management.
Develop energy budgets, energy saving features, and software controls strategies across sub-systems.
Work closely with simulation engineers to develop digital vehicle models for energy consumption prediction and vehicle design optimization across drive cycles.
Advocate for energy efficiency as vehicle development progresses - you'll need passion and backbone to deliver results and make data-driven tradeoffs on behalf of energy.

You'll collaborate on electrical powertrains, high-voltage batteries, thermal architectures, and low-voltage systems, as well as the sophisticated compute and sensing suites required for autonomous operation.
