Systems Safety Engineer
Reliable Robotics- Full Time
- Mid-level (3 to 4 years)
Candidates must possess a Master's degree or higher in an Engineering discipline or Computer Science and have at least 7 years of relevant professional experience in System Safety or Systems Engineering. Experience performing hazard analysis using methods such as System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP), or Functional Hazard Analysis (FHA) is required. Proficiency in probability and statistics is essential, along with strong written and in-person communication skills. Bonus qualifications include experience with autonomous driving systems and hands-on experience with industry safety standards like ISO 26262, ISO 21448, and DO-178.
The Senior/Staff Systems Engineer will contribute to the definition, development, and evolution of the Safety Case for Zoox technology, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, particularly the AI software team. They will perform hazard analysis using System-theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) to identify potential safety issues and inform test scenarios. The engineer will also conduct probabilistic risk assessments to quantify safety risks, identify and manage safety requirements, and ensure end-to-end traceability while producing a closed-loop Safety Case.
Develops autonomous electric ride-hailing vehicles
Zoox focuses on creating a fully integrated autonomous ride-hailing service designed specifically for urban transportation. Unlike other companies that modify existing vehicles for self-driving capabilities, Zoox has engineered its own vehicle from the ground up, optimizing it for safety, efficiency, and passenger comfort. The vehicle features advanced sensors, cameras, and AI systems that allow it to navigate complex city environments. It can carry up to four passengers in a spacious interior, ensuring a pleasant ride experience. Safety is paramount, with rigorous testing and collaboration with regulatory bodies to meet high standards. Additionally, Zoox's vehicles are fully electric, promoting sustainability by reducing emissions. The company also develops a user-friendly ride-hailing platform that uses data analytics to improve routing and reduce wait times. Zoox aims to enhance urban mobility while prioritizing safety and environmental responsibility.
