Reliability is foundational to scaling an autonomous mobility service. As the Prognostics Technical Lead, you will define and lead Zoox’s technical approach for predicting failures before they occur, enabling smarter maintenance, reducing unplanned downtime, and improving fleet availability.

In this role, you will sit at the intersection of field reliability, data, diagnostics, vehicle engineering, and service operations. You will lead the development of prognostics strategies for critical vehicle systems, translate real-world failure behavior into deployable health monitoring approaches, and help the organization decide where prognostics is the right lever versus diagnostics, preventive maintenance, or design change.

You will be expected to operate as both a technical leader and systems thinker: shaping the roadmap, guiding model and monitor development, aligning cross-functional partners, and ensuring prognostics work is grounded in actual fleet impact. This role is ideal for someone who can move fluidly between failure physics, field data, estimation methods, algorithm development, and operational implementation.
