About The Role

We are looking for experienced Senior Autonomous Vehicle Technicians to support the maintenance, diagnostics, repair, and operational readiness of autonomous vehicle fleets and robotaxi operations across Europe.

As a Senior Autonomous Vehicle Technician, you will be responsible for ensuring that electric and autonomous vehicles remain safe, reliable, and ready for daily deployment. This role supports autonomous ride-hailing services, robotaxi fleet operations, on-road testing programs, and new city launches where vehicle uptime, technical precision, and safety compliance are critical.

You will work closely with AV Operations Leads, Depot Specialists, Safety Operators, SDS Specialists, engineering teams, and fleet operations teams to minimize vehicle downtime and keep the fleet operational. The role combines hands-on automotive repair, EV diagnostics, high-voltage safety, software updates, and support for autonomous driving hardware.

This position is ideal for an experienced automotive technician who wants to move into the future of mobility and work directly with electric vehicles, autonomous driving systems, ADAS technology, robotics, and self-driving vehicle platforms.

Key Responsibilities

Autonomous Vehicle Maintenance

• Perform preventive and corrective maintenance on electric and autonomous vehicles used in robotaxi fleet operations
• Ensure vehicles are technically ready for daily deployment, testing, commercial operations, and autonomous ride-hailing services
• Conduct detailed vehicle inspections to support fleet readiness, vehicle uptime, and operational safety
• Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, electronic, and software-related vehicle issues
• Support maintenance workflows for high-availability autonomous vehicle fleets operating in shift-based or 24/7 environments
  
  
  

Advanced Diagnostics & Repair

• Perform advanced diagnostics on EV platforms, ADAS systems, autonomous driving hardware, and vehicle electronic systems
• Use OEM diagnostic tools, service software, and technical procedures to identify root causes of vehicle faults
• Troubleshoot issues related to battery systems, drivetrains, braking systems, steering systems, sensors, cameras, wiring, and vehicle control modules
• Replace, repair, and validate vehicle components according to safety, quality, and technical standards
• Escalate complex technical issues to engineering teams with clear documentation and diagnostic findings
  
  
  

EV & High-Voltage Systems

• Work safely with electric vehicle systems, including high-voltage batteries, charging systems, inverters, and electric drivetrains
• Follow strict high-voltage safety procedures when performing diagnostics, repairs, and component replacements
• Support charging readiness and EV fleet availability in coordination with depot operations
• Identify risks related to EV systems and escalate safety concerns immediately
  
  
  

Autonomous Driving Hardware Support

• Support installation, inspection, and replacement of autonomous vehicle hardware components
• Assist with checks related to cameras, LiDAR, radar, compute units, wiring harnesses, sensor mounts, and related vehicle systems
• Coordinate with SDS Specialists when issues involve the self-driving system, sensor calibration, or autonomous driving software
• Ensure autonomous driving hardware remains properly installed, clean, functional, and ready for operation
  
  
  

Software Updates & Technical Validation

• Perform vehicle software updates, configuration changes, and validation checks according to defined procedures
• Support post-repair testing to confirm vehicle functionality before returning the vehicle to robotaxi operations
• Verify that repairs and maintenance actions do not impact vehicle safety, operational readiness, or autonomous system performance
• Maintain accurate service records, diagnostic reports, and repair documentation
  
  
  

Shift Leadership & Team Support

• Act as the technical lead during assigned shifts when required
• Provide guidance and escalation support to junior technicians, depot teams, and fleet operations staff
• Support training of new technicians on vehicle maintenance procedures, safety standards, and operational workflows
• Collaborate with Operations Leads to prioritize vehicle repairs and reduce fleet downtime
  
  
  

Operational Excellence

• Help improve maintenance processes, vehicle turnaround time, and fleet reliability
• Support continuous improvement initiatives related to fleet maintenance, depot operations, and autonomous vehicle deployment
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe technical workspace within the depot
• Ensure all work is completed according to safety procedures, quality standards, and customer requirements
