About the Role

Join a cutting-edge autonomous vehicle company leading the way in transportation innovation. We are seeking tech-savvy individuals with strong reflexes, focus, and a passion for technology or gaming to support the testing and validation of advanced autonomous vehicle systems.

As a Simulation Operator, you will work hands-on with real-time driving autonomous vehicle equipment—using gaming-style controls and specialized interfaces to monitor vehicle responses, identify anomalies, and assist engineering teams in improving system performance. This role plays a vital part in ensuring the reliability and safety of next-generation autonomous driving technology.

This position emphasizes real-time operational troubleshooting rather than high-level technical development. Ideal candidates are early in their technical careers—those with up to 5 years of experience in troubleshooting, AVO operations, or IT support.


Key Responsibilities

  • Operate high-fidelity driving simulators using joysticks, steering wheels, or gaming-style controllers during live troubleshooting sessions.

  • Respond rapidly and accurately to simulated driving events and environmental changes.

  • Observe, log, and report system behavior, flagging performance issues or anomalies for engineering review.

  • Assist with hands-on troubleshooting, system restarts, and data collection during testing cycles.

  • Follow precise test procedures, safety guidelines, and operational protocols.

  • Maintain focus and situational awareness throughout extended testing periods.

  • Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to refine simulation accuracy and efficiency.


What You Bring

  • 2+ years of experience as an Autonomous Vehicle Operator (AVO), simulation operator, or in a junior IT support or QA testing role.

  • Proficiency with gaming controllers (Xbox, PlayStation, or PC joystick).

  • Excellent hand-eye coordination and fast reaction time.

  • Basic computer literacy with strong technical aptitude and troubleshooting ability.

  • Reliability, accountability, and strong attention to detail.

  • Ability to stay focused and calm under pressure in a dynamic testing environment.

  • Solid communication and teamwork skills.


Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with simulators, hardware troubleshooting, or gaming systems.

  • Exposure to automotive technology, software testing, or robotics environments.

  • Enthusiasm for innovation, automation, and the future of mobility.

Note: We prioritize candidates with up to 5 years of hands-on technical or troubleshooting experience. Senior IT professionals or candidates with primarily theoretical experience are typically not a fit for this role.


Shifts

  • Multiple shifts available: Day, Evening, and Weekend options.

  • Flexibility is highly valued.


Compensation & Benefits

  • $25.00 per hour.

  • Paid training.

  • Overtime opportunities.

  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology shaping the future of transportation.
