Job Description

SAFETY DRIVER – AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
Dallas & Austin, TX | $22-$25/hour | Full-Time | 40 hours/week | Direct Placement
Turn your driving experience into a full-time career.
If you already know how to handle traffic, navigate busy roads, stay alert behind the wheel, and make good decisions when conditions change — we want to talk to you.

We're hiring Safety Drivers to help test and improve the next generation of autonomous vehicles.
This is your opportunity to take the driving skills you already have and use them in a completely different environment — working directly with autonomous vehicle technology instead of driving passengers or making deliveries all day.

$22-$25/hour
Dallas or Austin, TX
Full-Time – 40 hours/week
Multiple shift options
Direct Placement

WHAT MAKES THIS JOB DIFFERENT?
You won't be sitting at home waiting for your next Uber request.
You won't be chasing delivery bonuses.
You won't have to worry about where your next passenger is coming from.
Instead, you'll be part of a team working with next-generation autonomous vehicles on real roads.
You'll drive when needed, supervise the vehicle when it's operating autonomously, monitor what's happening around you, and provide the information needed to help improve the technology.
You're not just driving. You're helping teach the technology how to drive safely.

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO

• Drive autonomous vehicles during real-world road testing
• Switch between manual driving and supervising autonomous mode
• Monitor traffic, pedestrians, road conditions, and your surroundings
• Identify potential hazards and react appropriately
• Work alongside remote operators and engineering teams
• Perform basic vehicle safety checks
• Record observations and driving data
• Help collect information used to improve autonomous driving systems
• Assist with basic technology-related tasks
• Help with simple hardware adjustments and software uploads
• Follow established testing and safety procedures

Don't have autonomous vehicle experience? That's okay.
You don't need to be an engineer.
We're looking for people who are good drivers, safety-conscious, observant, dependable, and comfortable learning new technology.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?
This opportunity may be a great fit if you have experience as a:
Uber Driver
Lyft Driver
Delivery Driver
Professional Driver
Fleet Driver
Shuttle Driver
Security Officer
Military Veteran
Automotive Professional
Technology/IT Professional
Or if you're simply an experienced driver looking for something different from traditional driving jobs.

WHAT YOU NEED

• Valid U.S. driver's license held for at least 3 years
• Clean driving record
• Strong driving and situational-awareness skills
• Good judgment behind the wheel
• Strong attention to detail
• Safety-first mindset
• Comfortable driving in different traffic, weather, and road conditions
• Comfortable using technology
• Able to follow detailed procedures
• Reliable and professional

You do NOT need previous autonomous vehicle experience.
Training and job-specific procedures will be provided.

PAY & SCHEDULE
$22-$25 PER HOUR
Full-Time | 40 Hours/Week
Multiple shift options are available, including morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend schedules depending on location.
Austin, TX

WHY THIS COULD BE YOUR NEXT MOVE
This isn't a traditional driving job.
It's an opportunity to take something you already know how to do — drive safely — and put it to work in one of the fastest-changing areas of transportation technology.
You could be gaining hands-on experience with autonomous vehicles while earning $25/hour in a full-time position.
