Description
Our team is working to ensure Zoox’s hardware and software are safe for operation in the real world through the use of simulation. As part of this process, the team is responsible for designing and running large numbers of simulations to generate key autonomy metrics that help to ensure Zoox’s hardware and software operate as expected.
In this role, you will help us scale to meet future milestones by finding ways to simplify complex pipelines, productionizing scripts to generate and verify simulations, design creative solutions to problems that arise as we scale, as well as using our internal tools to build new simulations from scratch. You should expect to work with cross-functional partners across mapping, simulation, verification, planning and perception among others.
You will be responsible for producing critical metrics that drive company-level decisions for the deployment of our driverless robots on public roads.
In this role, you will:
- Dive into large, complex systems that are already in place, as well as help design and build new systems from scratch as needed.
- Be highly cross-functional and understand at a high-level how external systems work
- Clearly communicate how our team’s systems work to cross-team technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Be responsible for helping to deliver mission-critical metrics to the executive team to drive major roadmap decisions
Qualifications
- Fluency in Python
- Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in computer science, applied mathematics, engineering, or other quantitative area
- 6+ years of industry experience in software engineering or data engineering
- Collaborative team player with strong written and in-person communication skills
- Experience working on data pipelines
Bonus Qualifications
- Experience building entire systems from scratch or meaningfully contributing to existing large-scale systems
- Experience with cloud and infra technologies (AWS, S3, SQL, Databricks, Airflow) and coding best practices
- Familiarity with simulation in any context (video games, autonomous vehicles)
- Experience with quantitative analysis of complex systems, probability and statistics

Frequently Asked Questions
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
