Zoox is developing a full-stack autonomous mobility solution for our cities. As a Technical Program Manager in EE Systems, you will own the electrical and electrical-distribution program scope on vehicle programs that Zoox executes jointly with external engineering partners.
You will own the RASIC, the change flow, the milestone plan, and the weekly truth about where EE stands. The harness technical lead owns the engineering content; you own the program.
In this role, you will:
Serve as the central EE coordination function for your program — the single Zoox point of contact for all electrical scope and the counterpart to the partner's E/E lead — and own the EE portion of the engineering RASIC from concept through industrialization
Drive low-voltage harness and EDS impact assessment and change management, running gap analysis of partner-proposed designs against Zoox EDS design best practices and lessons learned, and converting findings into tracked change requests
Manage cross-company engineering data exchange and release control, including CAD toolchain and version incompatibility between Zoox and its partners; ensure Zoox retains configuration and release control of LV harness drawings, and work with Sourcing and Supplier Quality on build-to-print readiness
Coordinate the full set of EE work packages — antenna integration, vehicle-level EMC verification, E/E integration and regression testing, thermal validation, and electrical mounting hardware — pulling in the responsible Zoox module owners and holding them to dates
Build and hold the EE milestone plan against program gates and material required dates, surfacing risk early with a recovery option rather than a red status; publish a concise weekly program update and prepare EE content for executive and gate reviews
Qualifications:
BS or MS in an engineering discipline, or equivalent experience
10+ years in technical program management, systems engineering, or engineering management in automotive, with direct ownership of electrical distribution systems or vehicle electrical architecture scope
Experience managing external engineering partners, engineering service providers, or Tier 1 development partners across time zones — including negotiating scope boundaries and holding a partner to committed deliverables; approximately quarterly international travel and recurring early-morning Pacific calls
Working fluency in engineering change management and PLM workflows: change requests, change actions, EBOM release, and drawing release control
Comfort operating without a settled org chart or a fully defined scope, the judgment to force decisions rather than wait for them, and the ability to communicate schedule and risk clearly to both engineers and executives
Proven track record in low voltage harness design and release, gained within an OEM or major automotive manufacturing environment
Proficiency with risk analysis tools (FTA, FMEA) and root-cause methodologies (8D, Fishbone analysis, etc.)
Bonus Qualifications:
Hands-on familiarity with CATIA (V5 and V6) and data exchange between mismatched OEM and supplier CAD toolchains
Knowledge of wire harness design and validation standards (USCAR, IPC/WHMA-A-620) and vehicle EMC standards (CISPR 25)
