Zoox is transforming transportation with a mission to build autonomous robotaxis from the ground up—delivering a safer, cleaner, more reliable, and enjoyable future for all.

The Analytics Platform, established in late 2024 as part of the Data Infrastructure organization, has been redefining the foundation of data analysis and metrics to enable machine learning, data science, engineering, and safety analysis with modern big data technologies. The team has been developing Zoox’s event-based data processing platform on top of AWS and Databricks for multiple teams to transform tens of PB structured data into more efficient and queryable data formats.

By joining this team, you’ll collaborate with a world-class group of software engineers to tackle complex challenges at the scale of hundreds of petabytes of data—pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in autonomous transportation.

In this role, you will:

Develop new features for Zoox’s event-based processing framework to process a large volume of data with complex dependencies in a timely manner.

Develop the in-house Data Lake to unite all the vehicle, rider, and simulation data in a single format to serve the entire Zoox.

Create and maintain Spark services using AWS EMR or similar cloud-based platforms.

Enhance system observability by building monitoring and alerting tools to track performance and measure success.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including software engineers, data engineers, and TPMs — to gather requirements, design robust architectures, and implement effective solutions.
