Avride, Austin, Texas
You will own how safety is tested, judged and reported across our QA team. Our Head of Safety owns the company's safety framework and the safety case built on top of it. You own the layer beneath: the gates, the criteria and the reports that turn day-to-day testing into evidence that argument can rest on.
The hard part of this is not the collisions. Those are obvious, and nobody argues about them. It is everything short of a collision the near miss, the late brake, the hesitation at an intersection that looked wrong to one engineer and fine to another where the judgement has to be made and then made the same way again next week, by someone else, on a different run. Turning that into criteria a whole team applies consistently is the craft of this role.
You will lead through process and through people who do not report to you.
Avride builds autonomous driving technology for vehicles and delivery robots, and tests it on public roads in Austin. Before anything reaches those roads it goes through our QA team: checks on every pull request, a daily validation of main, and release-candidate qualification over a large set of recorded scenes. Every one of those gates produces a verdict, and the safety part of that verdict is the one people act on.
