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.
Requirements
- BS in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or related discipline
- 8+ years of experience in powertrain, thermal, battery, or EV systems within a product development, manufacturing, or sustaining environment
- Demonstrated ability to deliver subsystem-level corrective actions that improve reliability, durability, manufacturability, or serviceability in production vehicles
- Experience with root cause analysis, DFMEA, and product and process validation
- Excellent communication and documentation skills with the ability to work cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment while managing multiple priorities
- Experience in autonomous vehicles
- Experience with Design for Manufacturing and Design for Service (DFM/DFS), and Lean, Six Sigma, or similar continuous improvement methodologies
- Proficiency with 3D CAD tools, CATIA preferred, and familiarity with tools such as 3DX, DELMIA, SAP, JIRA, Confluence, or data analysis or visualization tools such as dashboards, SQL, and Python
