About the Team

The Autonomous Vehicle (AV) Engineering organization supports the development of safe reliable and high-performing assisted and automated driving systems throughout the vehicle lifecycle. Our teams combine vehicle systems expertise engineering analysis data hands-on execution and disciplined documentation to accelerate learning and enable productive development testing.


The Fleet Reliability Engineering and AV Test Engineering teams work closely with AV Operations Service Operations technicians vehicle integration software systems safety and supplier teams. Together they identify risks plan and execute validation analyze vehicle and fleet performance resolve issues and improve the processes that keep development vehicles safe available serviceable and ready for testing.


We are hiring interns across two complementary focus areas. Both opportunities offer hands-on experience with autonomous vehicle development cross-functional problem-solving data analysis scripting and real-world engineering execution.


What You Will Do

Fleet Reliability Engineering

The Fleet Reliability Engineering team improves the health availability serviceability and operational readiness of autonomous vehicle fleets.

  • Define and improve fleet health reliability availability uptime and serviceability metrics.
  • Analyze vehicle health data telemetry diagnostic information service records work orders incidents and operational data.
  • Support dashboards data-mining activities and analytics that provide visibility into fleet condition and reliability trends.
  • Investigate recurring vehicle hardware software sensor electrical or operational issues by organizing symptoms timelines configurations and supporting evidence.
  • Support root-cause investigations issue prioritization corrective-action tracking and communication of findings to technical and operational stakeholders.
  • Partner with technicians and service teams to evaluate repairs maintenance activities return-to-service requirements and opportunities to improve repeatability.
  • Develop standard work checklists troubleshooting guides and documentation that improve fleet reliability service execution and issue closure.
  • Develop scripting and analysis tools to automate data processing fleet reporting reliability calculations and engineering workflows.
  • Support reliability testing and validation activities using vehicles benches diagnostic tools simulation and available fleet data.

AV Test Engineering

The AV Test Engineering team plans executes and analyzes testing of assisted and automated driving capabilities across simulation benches closed courses and on-road development fleets.

  • Translate engineering questions feature requirements and test requests into clear test cases procedures and acceptance criteria.
  • Assess test feasibility and identify dependencies including vehicles routes prototypes software branches tools instrumentation safety coverage staffing and operating approvals.
  • Prepare and execute feature sensor-level system-level regression A/B comparison and vehicle-level tests.
  • Execute performance and validation tests using simulation playback bench HIL/SIL closed-course and on-road fleets.
  • Develop scripts to automate testing data collection result processing and repeatable test workflows in vehicles and on benches.
  • Analyze vehicle sensor software and system data to evaluate performance identify regressions and improve validation efficiency.
  • Document test results consolidate findings create defects or mitigations and support root-cause investigations and re-test plans.
  • Support the creation of test datasets scenario libraries regression suites dashboards and automated test pipelines.
  • Coordinate with AV Operations and cross-functional engineering teams to schedule and execute testing safely and consistently.

Shared Responsibilities
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering and operations teams to deliver technical work and improve AV development processes.
  • Apply structured problem-solving to organize technical evidence identify trends and recommend next steps.
