The role

You will own the vision and priorities for marketplace optimization in Zoox's ride-hail business. This covers pricing, promotions, and fleet deployment across the hours and zones of each market.

What you will do

  • Set the objectives that pricing, promotions, and fleet deployment optimize against
  • Write PRDs that define what each system optimizes for and specify the models that make decisions
  • Partner with Data Science on elasticity, demand and supply forecasting, and marketplace simulation
  • Set and rank priorities for the vertical, sizing impact and effort with science and engineering leads
  • Drive delivery across teams, managing dependencies and escalating schedule risks early
  • Design experiments and simulation studies that gate launches, set ship criteria, and write readouts
  • Run the weekly operating cadence with Commercial Operations, Fleet Operations, and Finance
  • Propose changes to live pricing and fleet levers and present lever performance to leadership

Required qualifications

  • 8+ years in product management, technical program management, or marketplace strategy
  • Significant time on marketplace products such as ride-hail, delivery, travel, or similar, where pricing, incentives, matching, or supply planning was the product
  • Ability to specify an optimization problem in writing, including objective, constraints, data, guardrails, and validating experiment
  • Track record of driving a roadmap through teams that do not report to you
  • Degree in economics, operations research, statistics, or a similar field, with practical experience specifying or building models, running experiments, and reading results
  • Clear writing and presentation skills for PRDs and leadership readouts
  • Judgment to know which decisions need a model and which need a defensible heuristic shipped quickly

Nice to have

  • Pricing or revenue management for a capacity-constrained business such as airlines, hotels, freight, logistics, or energy
  • Experience taking a pricing, incentives, or fleet management system from zero to production
  • Deep technical grounding from graduate study in economics, operations research, statistics, or machine learning
  • Hands-on experience with experiments where units interfere, such as geo and time splits, switchbacks, and holdouts, and with simulation

  • Hiring process and visa sponsorship details are not stated in the posting.
