Description

Oxa is enabling the transition to self-driving vehicles through an initial focus on the most commercially advanced sector; the autonomous shuttling of goods and people.

We are home to some of the world's leading experts on autonomous vehicles, creating solutions such as Oxa Driver, equipping vehicles with full self-driving functionality; Oxa MetaDriver, using Generative AI to accelerate and assure the safety of deployments; and Oxa Hub, a set of cloud-based offerings for autonomous fleet management. Our technology is being deployed across the UK and the U.S, and we're partnering with a fast-growing ecosystem of operators, vehicle OEMs and equipment makers serving autonomous transportation globally as it advances.

Based in Oxford, and with offices in Canada and the U.S, Oxa was founded in 2014 and is growing rapidly (350+ 'Oxbots' to date). Our purpose is to change the way the Earth moves, through an uncompromising focus on safety, efficiency and explainability of our AI approaches. The company has attracted $225 million from leading investors so far, with $140 million raised in the last Series C funding round in January 2023.

Your Team

You will join and support our Assurance team, where we set the North Star for assurance and prepare for the safe commercial deployment of all of our products. You will also work closely with peers within the Metrics team with regular interactions with safety engineering, solutions, validation and MetaDriver.

Utilise Oxa's MetaDriver simulator for assurance purposes.
Own the development of Oxa's assurance reporting features.
Serve as a key liaison between product engineering teams and assurance functions, translating complex software requirements into comprehensible assurance arguments.

Solid software engineering design principles and up-to-date knowledge of Python best practices.
Knowledge of Python build systems (e.g. Bazel, Pants, Poetry, Conda build)
