The job, broken down
This is a Technical Program Manager role overseeing how driving events and software issues from Zoox's vehicle fleet and simulations get triaged into engineering fixes. You'll sit at the intersection of software integration, QA, safety, and product teams, treating triage as a systems and data problem rather than just a process.
What you'd actually do
- Coordinate triage of driving events and software issues coming from the vehicle fleet and large-scale simulation
- Turn raw incident data into actionable engineering signal
- Manage the loop connecting fleet/simulation data, engineering fixes, validation, and release
- Partner daily with software development, software integration, QA, safety, product, and vehicle operations teams
- Work with the Program Management Office to track program-level progress
Must-haves
- Experience as a Technical Program Manager or similar cross-functional coordination role
- Ability to treat triage as a systems and data problem, not just a workflow
- Comfort working across software development, QA, safety, and operations teams
- Experience with software integration or validation/release cycles
Nice to have
- Background in autonomous vehicles or robotics
- Experience with large-scale simulation environments
- Familiarity with fleet operations or vehicle telemetry data
Read before you apply
- No mention of salary or compensation range
- Duties are described at a high, abstract level (e.g. 'treat triage as a systems and data problem') without concrete deliverables or metrics
- Lists six different partner teams, which suggests a role with heavy coordination overhead and possibly unclear ownership boundaries

Steps to get this job
- 1In your resume or cover letter, mirror the phrase 'triage as a systems and data problem' and give one concrete example where you did this
- 2Lead with any experience you have connecting fleet or production data to engineering fixes and release cycles, since that's the core loop this role manages
- 3If you've worked with QA, safety, or vehicle operations teams before, name those specific team types since they match the posting's partner list
- 4Reach out to someone on Zoox's Platform SW Integration team on LinkedIn to ask how triage signal currently flows to engineering, and reference that conversation in your application
