Zoox’s Advanced Hardware Engineering team is responsible for delivering the autonomous hardware, sensing suites, and electronic control units that power our future fleet of self-driving vehicles. Crucial to this architecture is our Camera Sensor Suite—the primary visual system that provides the high-resolution RGB and infrared data necessary for our AI stack to perceive the world and navigate safely. We are looking for a seasoned Technical Program Manager to own the Camera program end-to-end, including the integrated schedules for our 5MP and LWIR (thermal) camera systems.
In this role, you will work cross-functionally with sensor engineering, computer vision software, systems safety, supply chain, and vehicle integration teams to achieve strategic objectives and tactical milestones. You will develop complex project schedules with numerous hardware/software dependencies, map sensor-specific milestones to major vehicle builds, mitigate technical risks, and manage program budgets. You will be expected to identify solutions to complex integration problems and navigate ambiguity, all while holding teams accountable and clearly communicating progress to leadership.
As with any startup, we move fast at Zoox, and you will be asked to wear many hats. We want to hear from you if you are passionate about solving challenging problems across diverse engineering teams and scaling your impact by developing structured ways of working. If you are an expert at unifying cross-functional stakeholders, driving consensus through technical diplomacy, and pushing high-precision hardware from concept to SOP, then this role was made for you!
