About this role

This role focuses on building realistic simulated road users—such as cars, pedestrians, and cyclists—to validate Zoox’s autonomous driving stack. The position is central to improving the fidelity of Zoox’s simulation environment so it accurately reflects complex, real-world urban traffic behaviors. The engineer will advance state-of-the-art traffic and behavior modeling to support safety validation and performance analysis of autonomous vehicles. The work directly supports Zoox’s mission of deploying a fully autonomous vehicle fleet in urban environments.

About Zoox

zoox.com

Zoox designs and builds purpose‑built, bidirectional electric robotaxis and the full autonomy stack — hardware, sensors, and software — to enable on‑demand, driverless ride‑hailing. The company takes a safety‑first, rider‑focused approach, engineering vehicles from the ground up for urban, zero‑emission mobility rather than adapting passenger cars. Acquired by Amazon in 2020, Zoox is working to commercialize a complete autonomous mobility service that rethinks ride‑hailing for riders instead of drivers.
