About the role
At Zoox, we are developing a purpose built autonomous robotaxi, and the Sustaining Engineering team plays a critical role in ensuring the long term reliability, safety, serviceability, and availability of our fleet as it operates at scale. As a Sustaining Engineer supporting Body and Closure Systems, you will independently own sustaining engineering for key subsystems supporting both the in-service fleet and vehicles in current production. You will drive root cause investigations and corrective actions, making subsystem-level technical decisions and leading changes through design, validation, release, and fleet implementation. This role requires close collaboration with Vehicle Development, Manufacturing, Service, Quality, Reliability, and Suppliers in a fast paced and often ambiguous environment. You will prioritize work based on fleet and production impact, delivering solutions that improve safety, durability, fleet uptime, and manufacturing performance.
