You'll contribute to real projects, work alongside engineers and researchers pushing the boundaries of autonomous technology, and gain experience that goes well beyond the classroom. We're looking for students who bring strong academic foundations, curiosity that doesn't stop at coursework, and a drive to be part of something that matters. Role Overview Manage Autonomy Software program planning and execution. Track and resolve cross-functional engineering dependencies. Drive the adoption of standard engineering processes.

Role Overview Manage Autonomy Software program planning and execution. Track and resolve cross-functional engineering dependencies. Drive the adoption of standard engineering processes. Participate actively in core technical discussions. We want to be transparent: this is not an internship. The Part-Time Student Worker Program is designed to complement your academic experience by providing meaningful, ongoing work alongside your studies. Rather than participating in a cohort-based program, you'll join a team directly and contribute to real projects with real impact. While the program does not include structured intern programming or a pathway to full-time employment, it offers valuable opportunities to learn, develop new skills, and gain hands-on experience in a professional environment. Compensation for this role is $30/hour. This is a contract position; employment will be through a vendor contracted with Zoox. The hourly rate is as posted, and benefits eligibility is determined by the vendor. About Zoox Zoox is developing the first ground-up, fully autonomous vehicle fleet and the supporting ecosystem required to bring this technology to market. Sitting at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, and design, Zoox aims to provide the next generation of mobility-as-a-service in urban environments. We’re looking for top talent that shares our passion and wants to be part of a fast-moving and highly execution-oriented team. ### Follow us on LinkedIn Accommodations If you need an accommodation to participate in the application or interview process please reach out to accommodations@zoox.com or your assigned recruiter. A Final Note: You do not need to match every listed expectation to apply for this position. Here at Zoox, we know that diverse perspectives foster the innovation we need to be successful, and we are committed to building a team that encompasses a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and skills. **Live in Zoox’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role. We remove it as soon as it disappears at source. ## More jobs like this - ZO [Senior / Staff Technical Program Manager - End-to ...](https://gurify.com/job/senior-staff-technical-program-manager-end-to-at-zoox-feac1e533449) Zoox · Foster City, CA · 2 weeks ago - ZO [Senior Technical Program Manager - Compute and Sensors](https://gurify.com/job/senior-technical-program-manager-compute-and-sensors-at-zoox-86e2fedba39f) Zoox · Foster City, CA · 3 weeks ago - ZO [Senior/Staff Technical Program Manager - Fleet Orchestration](https://gurify.com/job/senior-staff-technical-program-manager-fleet-orchestration-at-zoox-607aa5a7c4ea) Zoox · Foster City, CA · 3 weeks ago - CP [Community Program Manager, DEV (Full-Time)](https://gurify.com/job/community-program-manager-dev-full-time-effd53a49f17) Any City, United States · 3 weeks ago - ZO [Senior / Staff Technical Program Manager, Fleet Optimization](https://gurify.com/job/senior-staff-technical-program-manager-fleet-optimization-at-zoox-26af7ba585c6) Zoox · Foster City, CA · 6 weeks ago - ZO [Senior Technical Program Manager - Vehicle Attributes](https://gurify.com/job/senior-technical-program-manager-vehicle-attributes-at-zoox-caf947f60597) Zoox · Foster City, CA · 7 weeks ago ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org/","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Contract Student Worker Technical Program Manager (Full-time)","description":"\u003Cp\u003EAbout Zoox\u003Cbr /\u003EZoox is an autonomous ridehailing company building the world\u0026#39;s first purpose-built robotaxi \u2014 fully electric, bidirectional, with no steering wheel or driver\u0026#39;s seat.
