The posting

Zoox is building a full-stack autonomous mobility solution for our cities. As a technical program manager on the Autonomy team, you will work cross-functionally with engineering leaders across mapping, map data infrastructure, and mission planning to turn corporate strategy into detailed roadmaps and drive execution at each stage of our growth. These roles sit at the center of how our vehicles know where they are and where they need to go: scaling the Zoox Road Network (ZRN) to new cities, building the Map Data Platform that powers it, and delivering the Mission Planner that routes riders to their destinations. You will build project schedules, identify milestones, flag risks, and communicate progress clearly.

In this role, you will:

  • Partner with engineering managers across Mapping, Map Data Platform, and Mission Planner to translate corporate strategy and milestones into detailed roadmaps, timelines, and deliverables
  • Give leadership a clear view of risks, dependencies, and readiness for each new city deployment
  • Build scalable processes for the maps, data, and routing that every Zoox ride depends on
  • You'll work with cross-functional stakeholders across Zoox to proactively identify gaps, escalate risks, and drive issues to closure
  • You'll be a trusted partner to engineering leadership and the go-to person for unblocking teams and driving solutions

Qualifications

  • BS/MS degree in computer science, engineering or equivalent job experience with at least 4 years of experience in technical program management
  • Strong track record of leading ambiguous, complex programs across multiple engineering teams with differing processes and tooling
  • An ability to keep the big picture in focus and provide clear, well-structured, and concise communications tailored to each appropriate audience
  • Deep familiarity with software and data infrastructure development processes
  • Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills, including KPI and risk visualization, and proficiency with program tools (e.g., Gantt charts, risk matrices, Smartsheet, Jira)

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience with autonomous vehicles, robotics, or mapping and routing systems (e.g., HD maps, geospatial data pipelines, or routing optimization at a mapping or ride-hailing company)
  • Experience scaling infrastructure, data platforms, or engineering processes across fast-growing teams
  • Experience with complex safety-critical systems

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
