Role
Who you are
- BA/BS degree, preferably in a Finance, Accounting, Data Science, or other quantitative field
- 4+ years experience in an FP&A or other analytical field
- 2+ years of direct experience building models, forecast input templates, dashboards, and business process development
- Experience with annual budgeting, rolling forecasting, and long-term strategic planning
- Experience working directly with best-in-class planning and reporting tools (Anaplan, OneStream, Looker, etc.)
- Highly analytical, with proven ability to synthesize and analyze large amounts of data to develop clear insights and recommendations
- Ability to develop strong, cross-functional working relationships across the finance team and beyond
Desirable
- Experience in the TNC, Transportation, or other mobility/fleet operations industries
- Direct experience with contingent workforce planning, vendor management, or staffing agency partnerships
- Familiarity with fleet operations staffing models (e.g., shift-based, ratio-driven, or demand-fluctuating labor needs)
What the job involves
- The FP&A team at Zoox drives financial analysis of key strategic investments, maintains short and long term financial models, and develops reporting for both internal and external stakeholders
- As a Financial Analyst supporting Workforce Planning for Fleet Operations, you will partner with Operations leaders on contingent staffing and headcount budget cycles and MEC activities
- Additionally, you will manage the contingent labor spend, staffing ratio, and vendor cost models, partnering across the organization and with Fleet Operations and staffing vendor counterparts to drive forecast accuracy and data-driven decision making
- This role requires a solid understanding of contingent labor cost drivers and workforce supply/demand dynamics, establishing strong working relationships across the organization, and utilizing enterprise systems like Anaplan and SAP to build robust models and dashboards
- The goal for this role is to drive decision-making through timely and actionable financial insights that keep Fleet Operations appropriately staffed
- Own and maintain long-range, annual, and mid-year financial models for contingent workforce planning that align to operational demand and key company initiatives
- Partner with Fleet Operations leadership and cross functional partner teams to set staffing ratio targets and review performance vs targets
- Manage close activities related to contingent labor spend, vendor invoicing, and staffing plan variance
- Analyze large financial and operational datasets from Anaplan, SAP S4, SAP Ariba, and other internal data systems to drive actionable insights
Our take
Zoox, a self-driving vehicle company, was founded to make personal transportation safer and more enjoyable for all. It has aimed to achieve this goal by creating a new mode of driverless transportation, thus eradicating the safety and logistical issues that come with human drivers.
It revealed its custom vehicle design in December 2020, showcasing something different from just a car without a driver. Uniquely, all four wheels are independent of one another, and the vehicles have no front or back, making them more agile than a standard car. Zoox claims that it is different from other industry players because it has created an entire driverless ecosystem, including the vehicle itself, allowing it to have more control.
The company is fast becoming a major player in an industry that is predicted to be worth $2 trillion by 2030. Electric motors are highly desirable, particularly in an urban environment, as governments look for ways to reduce emissions and improve air quality. Zoox is aiming to play a vital role in this evolution towards more sustainable urban mobility. Amazon acquired the company in 2020 and, despite a general downturn in the sector through 2022, opened its first Zoox factory for robotaxis in 2025 and is testing the autonomous vehicles in multiple cities in the US.
