# Manager, Sensor Integration & Cleaning Hardware

**Zoox** · Foster City, CA

Salary: $233,000–$324,000 per year

Apply: https://jobs.lever.co/zoox/f7f84c5c-acda-4c2c-8da6-6d59bce8da25

## About Zoox

Zoox is a purpose-built autonomous vehicle designed for riders, not drivers. Learn more about the Zoox robotaxi and the future of ride-hailing.

## About the role

As Manager, Sensor Integration/Cleaning HW, you will lead a team responsible for ensuring Zoox vehicles can operate safely and reliably in real-world environments. You will manage a multidisciplinary team of engineers designing, integrating, validating, and launching sensor assemblies and sensor cleaning systems that maintain the performance of our autonomy sensors across a wide range of environmental conditions. You will drive your team's engineering solutions and program execution to ensure sensors remain within operational specifications, minimize contamination-related failures, optimize for supply chain and volume manufacturing, improve vehicle availability and serviceability, and support the scalable deployment of Zoox autonomous vehicles.

##### In This Role, You Will

- Lead, mentor, and grow a team of mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers developing sensor assemblies and sensor cleaning systems for Zoox's autonomous vehicle fleet.

- Own program delivery for sensor integration and sensor cleaning hardware, from concept through validation, launch, and fleet support.

- Set technical direction and review key design decisions across mechanical packaging, electrical integration, and system-level architecture for sensor and cleaning subsystems.

- Partner with sensor performance, perception, test, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure designs meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.

- Manage program scope, schedule, and resourcing across multiple concurrent sensor integration and cleaning projects.

- Drive cross-functional design reviews, DFMEA/PFMEA processes, and validation planning to de-risk programs ahead of production.

- Represent the team in front of engineering leadership, communicating program status, technical tradeoffs, and risks.

- Recruit, develop, and retain engineering talent, and build a strong culture of technical rigor and ownership within the team.

##### Qualifications

- 8+ years of engineering experience in mechanical, electrical, or systems engineering, with prior experience in sensor systems, sensor cleaning, exteriors or closures.

- 3+ years of experience directly managing engineers, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management.

- Demonstrated experience leading cross-functional hardware programs from concept through production, including specification authoring, supplier selection, DFMEA, DV/PV testing, and manufacturing readiness.

- Strong technical fluency across mechanical design (CAD, tolerance stack-up, fluid/pneumatic systems) and electrical integration (sensor interfaces, wiring/harness design, controls).

- Experience managing program scope, budget, and schedule across multiple concurrent workstreams.

- Excellent cross-functional communication skills, with experience presenting technical tradeoffs and program status to engineering leadership.

##### Bonus Qualifications

- Direct experience with camera, lidar, or radar sensor systems and their environmental/contamination challenges.

- Experience with fluid or airflow simulation (CFD) for cleaning system design.

- Background in autonomous vehicle or ADAS hardware programs.

- Experience scaling a team through rapid program growth or a transition from prototype to production.
