About the role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced engineer to join the Behavior Evaluation team and play a pivotal role in measuring the safety of Zoox’s autonomous driving technology. The Behavior Evaluation is the team behind the behavioral part of Zoox’s estimate, quantifying how often the autonomy stack causes the vehicle to stop unexpectedly and how that maps to collision risk. As a member of this team, you will own and scale the pipeline behind these numbers, driving innovation in ML model scoring, sampling, and projections while making the system faster, more reliable, and easier to audit. You will work closely with a team of talented engineers and researchers in a fast paced, collaborative environment as Zoox expands to more cities and software releases.
