Think creatively to address novel and complex legal issues raised by autonomous vehicle technology and to shape the regulatory frameworks needed to support rapid deployment and geographic expansion
Own strategic compliance roadmaps with federal and state autonomous vehicle requirements, including securing operational authorizations, managing data and incident reporting, and developing external responses to regulatory inquiries
Bolster the broader legal function by partnering with the wider legal team on occasional targeted projects, including incident response, dispute resolution, and transactional matters
Required Qualifications
JD degree and active member of a State Bar
3-6 years of relevant in-house, law firm, and/or government experience
Proven track record of handling complex regulatory and legislative matters, with an appetite for diving deep into multi-jurisdictional regulatory and policy issues
Demonstrated excellence in analytical, written, and oral communication, with an ability to collaborate and influence cross-functionally
Highly organized and capable of managing multiple simultaneous projects under deadline pressure, while providing practical, solutions-oriented advice to stakeholders
Desirable Qualifications
Prior experience in the automotive, trucking, or other highly-regulated safety-sensitive industries
Knowledge of the autonomous vehicle industry and relevant laws and safety standards
Familiarity with adjacent legal and regulatory frameworks, including products liability, commercial law, data governance, privacy, or trade compliance
For roles based in Mountain View, CA and San Francisco, CA: The salary range for this position is $181,000 - $290,000 per year.
Aurora’s pay ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, the successful candidate’s starting base pay will be determined based on factors including job-related skills, experience, qualifications, relevant education or training, and market conditions. These ranges may be modified in the future. The successful candidate will also be eligible for an annual bonus, equity compensation, and benefits.
Working at Aurora
At Aurora, we bring together extraordinarily talented and experienced people united by the strength of our values. We operate with integrity, set outrageous goals, and build a culture where we win together — all without any jerks.
We believe in-person work increases collaboration, empathy, and our ability to lead effectively. As a result, Aurorans are expected to work from the office at least 3 days per week, with some roles requiring more frequent in-office presence, up to 5 days per week, based on operational needs.
