About the role
Zoox is looking for a Staff Product Security Engineer to define and drive the long-term security strategy for our robots and fleet. Reporting into the Product Security organization, this person will own the vision for our robot security roadmap - from our current-generation vehicles to next-generation platforms - setting the technical direction that keeps our autonomous fleet resilient against real-world threats.
What they're looking for
- 10+ years of experience in security engineering, including significant time in an architect, staff, or technical lead capacity
- Deep expertise in embedded/IoT security, including secure boot, TPM/TEE, cryptographic key management, and hardened firmware/OS design
- Demonstrated experience architecting security for complex, physical/cyber-physical systems (automotive, robotics, aerospace, industrial control, or similar)
- Strong track record of driving cross-functional technical strategy and influencing engineering leadership without direct authority
- Solid understanding of network security, cloud security, and secure software development lifecycle practices
