Safety Driver

Over the last few years, there has been a rush to develop technologies targeted at enabling autonomous vehicles, yet almost every company in the industry is still retrofitting legacy vehicle platforms and many are no closer to having a finished product.

At Faction, we're on a mission to right-size transportation by making it driverless and accessible to everyone so that it's smart, simple, and fun.

The Role

We're looking for a Safety Driver to partner with our development team to run data collection using Faction's vehicles/technology. The ideal candidate will be comfortable driving Autonomous Vehicles, have a valid Texas Driver License with a spotless driving record, and is someone process oriented with a keen eye for details.

What You'll Do:

• Drive Faction's vehicles and make suggestions on how to improve the drive, feel, comfort, and overall Faction driving experience
• Inspect and check the vehicles daily
• Clean the interior and exterior of vehicles at regular intervals or as needed
• Operate vehicles according to traffic safety procedures and safe driving practices
• Document daily summaries
• Interact with customers and other duties as assigned
• Adhere to COVID-19 protocols to maintain a healthy environment for employees, clients, and customers

What You'll Need:

• Valid Class C Driver License, Class A preferred, and C+M1 is a nice to have
• 5+ years driving experience with a clean driving record
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Ability to maintain composure under pressure
• Strong organizational, communication, and customer service skills

What Makes You Stand Out:

• Passion and interest for autonomous driving
• Track driving experience (HPDE or racing)
• Vehicle enthusiast
