Job description

As a Firmware Connectivity Systems Integration and Test Lead on the Embedded Software team, you will own the performance, optimization, and debugging of our TCU (Telematics Control Unit). Managing a complex architecture that integrates third-party hardware with our autonomous vehicle platform, you will analyze diagnostics and log outputs across cellular networks, 4G/5G modem, internal software layer, WiFi, and more. You will not only reactively troubleshoot complex field issues but also proactively design, facilitate, and evaluate advanced testing campaigns-utilizing industry-standard network emulation tools like the Keysight UXM-to identify cellular edge cases and vulnerabilities before they impact operations.
Your work will directly safeguard the safety, reliability, and scaling of the Zoox autonomous fleet. Robust, low-latency connectivity is fundamental to autonomous vehicle deployment, powering essential real-time cloud services, fleet management pipelines, and teleoperation capabilities. By ensuring our vehicles maintain seamless, high-performance connections under the most demanding real-world conditions, you will bridge the gap between cutting-edge hardware, cloud infrastructure, and test systems to enable Zoox to deliver the future of autonomous mobility
In this role:
  • Ensure all interfaces are well-architected, documented, and validated - notably, between RF-baseband, baseband-protocol stack (AP), AP to host etc.
  • Define component integration plans (from bring-up to advanced functions), then design and execute comprehensive test plans spanning initial hardware bring-up through large-scale operational fleet deployment
  • Dig into challenging log reviews and cross-functional system integration mysteries to identify root causes and to propose solutions, balancing long-term goals with near-term operational needs
  • Leverage your substantial prior expertise in connectivity software and protocols (cellular modem cross-layers, WiFi MAC/PHY) to provide insights and feedback that can improve the performance and reliability of our systems
  • Review (and if necessary, adjust or author) the Software, Firmware, and integration design specifications and requirements on Zoox's connectivity systems

Qualifications
  • M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or a similar discipline with 8+ years of experience.
  • Expertise in developing 3GPP cellular (4G, 5G-NR) /WiFi /Satellite feature test plans and debugging 4G-LTE / 5G-NR Protocol layers (such as MAC, L1, RF, FW).
  • Expertise in LTE/5G Protocol Stacks (NAS, PDCP, RRC, RLC, MAC, PHY)
  • Ability to use cellular network analysis tools (e.g., QXDM, Shannon Tools, Wireshark) and develop log frameworks to analyze wireless communication behavior and automate them.
  • Hands-on experience configuring/programming wireless test platforms (UXM, CMX500, SMBv100, Spirent) and testing/troubleshooting modem development boards and prototypes.

$220,000 - $275,000 a year
Compensation
There are three major components to compensation for this position: salary, Amazon Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Zoox Stock Appreciation Rights.
