Job Description

Tired of unpredictable pay and vehicle expenses that eat your earnings?  avfleet.ai is a different deal. You drive a 2026 Hyundai Ioniq on the Uber platform — and we cover the car, the insurance, the maintenance, the charging, and any other tools for your job. Get paid hourly and keep every dollar of your tips.

How is this different from gig driving: you’re paid by the hour, on the clock, whether the app is busy or not. No more hoping for surge. No more math about whether tonight was worth it.

What you’ll earn

• $20.00 per hour base pay, paid twice a month (on 1st and 15th)

• Tips on top — 100% yours. Our drivers have historically averaged $3–$5 per hour in tips, though tips vary and are not guaranteed

• Predictable Schedule – Our Drivers select a five-day schedule from available options. Scheduled shifts are 8.5 hours in length

• $200 referral bonus when you bring in a friend who joins and drives for at least 30 days

What we cover, so you don’t

Maintenance. Insurance. Fuel. Company issued phone. You show up and drive — the operating costs are ours, not yours.

Benefits

• Health insurance (after 90 days of employment)

• 401(k)

• California paid sick leave

What you’ll do

• Get passengers where they’re going, safely and on time, in a company EV

• Run pre-shift and post-shift inspections and flag anything that needs attention

• Perform sensor calibration and keep the sensors clean

• Use our navigation and dispatch apps to accept and fulfill all rides safely

• Keep the car charged during your shift at our designated locations

• Drive in pre-designated routes to train the AV system mounted on the vehicle

• Deliver the kind of service that earns the tips — professional, courteous, helpful with bags, etc.

• Follow traffic laws and our safety standards and maintain a uber rider rating above 4.95

• Report incidents right away so we can support you

• Maintain a professional presentation for every shift, bring a positive attitude, and collaborate respectfully with your supervisors and teammates

What you need

• A valid California driver’s license

• Two or more years of licensed driving experience

• A driving record that meets our insurance standards. An insurance check will be performed after conditional job offer is issued

• Eligibility to drive on Uber, including their minimum age standard of 25

• Legal authorization to work in the United States

• Strong communication and customer service instincts

• Availability for full-time evening and/or overnight shifts, five days a week

Nice to have

• Rideshare or delivery driving experience

• Experience driving an electric vehicle

• Knowing San Francisco geography and traffic patterns

• Able to speak Spanish

The shifts

Evening and overnight shifts, five days a week. Full-time only. You’ll be in and out of the car through your shift, occasionally handling luggage, child seats and other tools/equipment up to 40 pounds and driving for extended stretches including at night. Need a reasonable accommodation to do any part of this job? Tell us and we’ll work it out with you.

Predictable hours. We schedule 8-hour shifts, and we staff to end on time. Overtime is occasional rather than routine — when it happens, it’s paid at time and a half past 8 hours in a day or 40 in a week. If you want a job where you know when you’re going home, this is the one.

Apply now

We read every application ourselves — no automated screening, no resume-ranking software.

This is a W-2 position.
