More about Gatik

Founded in 2017 by experts in autonomous vehicle technology, Gatik has rapidly expanded its presence to Mountain View, Dallas-Fort Worth, Arkansas, and Toronto. As the first and only company to achieve fully driverless middle-mile commercial deliveries, Gatik holds a unique and defensible position in the AV industry, with a clear trajectory toward sustainable growth and profitability.

We have delivered complete, proprietary AV technology - an integration of software and hardware - to enable earlier successes for our clients in constrained Level 4 autonomy.  By choosing the middle mile – with defined point-to-point delivery, we have simplified some of the more complex AV challenges, enabling us to achieve full autonomy ahead of competitors. Given extensive knowledge of Gatik’s well-defined, fixed route ODDs and hybrid architecture, we are able to hyper-optimize our models with exponentially less data, establish gate-keeping mechanisms to maintain explainability, and ensure continued safety of the system for unmanned operations.

About the role

As an Autonomous Vehicle Operator, you will safely operate Gatik vehicles for on-time in-route customer deliveries. We are looking for a highly motivated self-starter to help us operate our box trucks running routes to transport dry and refrigerated cargo.  You’ll be a valuable contributor by collecting necessary data for our engineering teams aimed at improving our groundbreaking automated driving technology while meeting customers’ product delivery needs.

This role is onsite in Phoenix or Peoria AZ

What you'll do

• Ensure safe, reliable operation of class 3-7 box truck delivery vehicles, in manual modes while keeping other drivers & operators, the public, and the vehicle safe
• Manually drive the vehicles on assigned, consistent routes to gather route data in support of moving toward future state autonomous operations
• Display customer service orientation and act as an ambassador for the company toward customers and the public
• Ensure vehicles arrive at pick-up and drop-off locations on time and the integrity of goods is retained on each journey
• Assist with safe, secure loading and unloading of customer goods using equipment such as pallet jacks, carts, dollies, lift gates, handbombing, etc.
• Update the dispatch team on shift and route status
• Ensure the operation and safety of trucks by daily routine checks (monitoring fluid levels, checking tire pressure, hose connections, etc.)
• Perform ad-hoc projects such as truck delivery to new locations, testing and/or installing new equipment, etc.
• Collaborate with teams to follow collection and drop-off procedures on each journey
• Learn and adhere to company standard operating procedures (SOPs) and ensure compliance with safe operations standards

What we're looking for

• Possesses a valid CDL with 3+ years of driving experience (non-CDL candidates are also encouraged to apply).
• Maintains a clean driving record and successfully passes background and drug screenings.
• Comfortable operating box trucks (26–30 feet), with or without a refrigerated unit.
• Demonstrates initiative, proactivity, and a strong focus on detail and safety.
• Communicates clearly and collaborates effectively, while also thriving in independent work settings.
• Tech-savvy and adaptable to varied shift schedules, including evenings, weekdays, and weekends.

No Touch Freight: Focus solely on driving—loading and unloading are handled by others.
Shift Hours: Shifts typically begin at 2:00 AM and run 8 to 12 hours, ending around 2:00–3:00 PM.
Weekly Hours: Expect 40–45 hours per week, with availability required across all 7 days.

About the role

• Deployment Tracking & Orchestration
  • Own the master deployment readiness view across all customers, locations, and deployment phases — from vehicle allocation through operational go-live.
  • Manage a multi-tier tracking system (Jira or equivalent) spanning deployment-level milestones and vehicle- level parallel workstreams: vehicle release from production, remote supervision station setup, route/map validation, and staff training completion among others.
  • Build dashboards providing real-time visibility into vehicle-by-vehicle, customer-by-customer readiness, deployment-level status, and cross-cutting blockers. Define and enforce gate-based readiness criteria
    ensuring no deployment advances without prerequisites clearing.
  • Track supply vs. demand metrics — vehicle release timing against customer dates, crew-to-vehicle ratios,
    and rolling readiness scores — to surface risks long before they become blockers.
• Escalation & Risk Management
  • Operate as the central escalation point for deployment blockers. Maintain escalation protocols with defined SLAs based on deployment proximity and severity.
  • Maintain a risk-weighted priority matrix accounting for customer contractual commitments, revenue impact, fleet availability, and operational complexity.
  • Run regular deployment readiness reviews with engineering, safety, and operations leadership — crisp status updates with clear asks and owners for every open item.
• Cross-Functional Liaison
  • Serve as the connective tissue between Hardware/Software Engineering (vehicle production, software feature readiness), Safety (safety case gating, operational design domain validation), and Operations (field
    staff, remote supervision/training, site infrastructure, customer interface).
  • Translate engineering and safety constraints into operational timelines and vice versa. Coordinate with customer-facing teams to set expectations and provide early warning when timelines are at risk.
• Tooling & Continuous Improvement
  • Own the project structure for deployment tracking: issue hierarchies, automation rules, custom workflows, and reporting dashboards. Develop runbooks, checklists, and SOPs for each deployment phase.
  • Conduct post-deployment retrospectives and feed improvements back into readiness processes, tooling, and coordination cadences

More about Gatik

Founded in 2017 by experts in autonomous vehicle technology, Gatik has rapidly expanded its presence to Mountain View, Dallas-Fort Worth, Arkansas, and Toronto. As the first and only company to achieve fully driverless middle-mile commercial deliveries, Gatik holds a unique and defensible position in the AV industry, with a clear trajectory toward sustainable growth and profitability.

We have delivered complete, proprietary AV technology - an integration of software and hardware - to enable earlier successes for our clients in constrained Level 4 autonomy.  By choosing the middle mile – with defined point-to-point delivery, we have simplified some of the more complex AV challenges, enabling us to achieve full autonomy ahead of competitors. Given extensive knowledge of Gatik’s well-defined, fixed route ODDs and hybrid architecture, we are able to hyper-optimize our models with exponentially less data, establish gate-keeping mechanisms to maintain explainability, and ensure continued safety of the system for unmanned operations.

More about Gatik

Founded in 2017 by experts in autonomous vehicle technology, Gatik has rapidly expanded its presence to Mountain View, Dallas-Fort Worth, Arkansas, and Toronto. As the first and only company to achieve fully driverless middle-mile commercial deliveries, Gatik holds a unique and defensible position in the AV industry, with a clear trajectory toward sustainable growth and profitability.

We have delivered complete, proprietary AV technology - an integration of software and hardware - to enable earlier successes for our clients in constrained Level 4 autonomy.  By choosing the middle mile – with defined point-to-point delivery, we have simplified some of the more complex AV challenges, enabling us to achieve full autonomy ahead of competitors. Given extensive knowledge of Gatik’s well-defined, fixed route ODDs and hybrid architecture, we are able to hyper-optimize our models with exponentially less data, establish gate-keeping mechanisms to maintain explainability, and ensure continued safety of the system for unmanned operations.
