About the role

Original posting from Zoox via Lever

At Zoox, we're not just building self-driving cars; we're creating an autonomous ride-hailing service that will revolutionize how people move.
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our Mobile Applications Engineering team. In this role, you will help build and scale our Android application, contributing to product features that directly shape the future of Zoox’s rider experience. You will work closely with senior engineers to establish robust, usable, and secure interfaces that connect our riders to our autonomous fleet.
We're designing and building everything from the ground up — the vehicle, the software, and the systems that keep it all running safely at scale. If you want to work on hard problems that matter, Zoox is where that happens.
