Job Description
Education:
•Currently pursuing a BS OR MS in Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical, Mobility, Robotics, or Data Science.
Qualifications/Skills/Experience:
• The Vehicle Operator & Data Analytics role supports the Client’s Autonomous Driving development by capturing high-quality driving data and providing meaningful insights to engineering teams. You will operate test vehicles across USA regions an area ideal for ADAS/AD testing due to its mix of Urban environments, Narrow and hilly roads, Tunnels, bridges, sharp curvature and Varied traffic conditions.
• This role is ideal for students interested in Autonomous Driving, ADAS validation, vehicle testing, and data analytics. You will gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge AD systems in real-world environments.
Key Responsibilities
• Vehicle Operations
• Safely drive prototype-level ADAS/AD vehicles across the USA and nearby cities
• Operate on defined and exploratory routes with changing road topology, weather, and traffic conditions with the Route Intelligence Tool at the Client
• Maintain full readiness to take over control when the system disengages—smoothly and without over-correction.
• Data Collection & Equipment Handling
• Operate in-vehicle DAQ (Data Acquisition) systems: start/stop logs, event tagging, monitoring sensors, and simple debugging.
• Follow daily test plans, perform vehicle readiness checks, and ensure high-quality data capture.
• Feedback & Observation
• Provide structured, objective feedback about vehicle behavior, near-miss situations, system hesitation, or unexpected actions.
• Identify environment types that commonly challenge AD systems (e.g., sharp curves, elevation
• changes, pedestrian crossings).
• Data Analytics & Safety Evaluation
• Analyze human-driving vs. AD system driving behavior.
• Support investigations of Safety interventions, Non-collision safety-related events and Potential collision scenarios
• Contribute to defining scenario-based metrics for German/European driving conditions (e.g., Autobahn merging, roundabouts, bike lanes).
• Assist with data-driven decisions based on large datasets.
Basic Qualifications (Need to Have)
• Strong and responsible driving habits, valid EU B-class driver’s license with no major accident history.

• Resilient: Views challenges as opportunities to improve.
• Clear communicator: Able to summaries observations concisely.
What Students Will Gain
• Experience with real ADAS/AD systems used globally.
• Exposure to vehicle data pipelines, DM&A workflows, and test engineering.
• Understanding of German/European road complexities in AD driving.
• Close collaboration with engineering teams in Germany, Poland, the US, and India.
• A strong foundation for a future career in Autonomous Driving, Robotics, or Data Analytics. - **Only those lawfully authorized to work in the designated country associated with the position will be considered.**
