Motional’s Las Vegas office is located less than 10 miles from the Las Vegas strip at 730 E Pilot Road and is home to one of the largest fleets of self-driving vehicles. The city’s grid system of roads and being one of America’s “smart cities” allows for extensive research and development testing.
Mission Summary:
A Triage Specialist is responsible for accurately reviewing data that has been collected from, but not limited to Public Road Evaluation (PRE) testing and performing first-level Root Cause Analysis and quality checks for third party Triage Contractors. They communicate between Engineering and component teams and help to improve Triage outcomes. This role will identify gaps and assist in creating processes that will enhance Triage throughput. Efficiency and quality is critical, but ultimately, a Triage Specialist plays a key role in maintaining the safety standards of how the AV performs on the road.
Essential Duties:
- Perform Level 1 Root Cause Analysis (RCA) on several different test modalities, including, but not limited to, public roads, closed courses, and simulation
- Work closely with third-party Triage contractors to help improve quality and throughput
- Closely partner with the Autonomy Team to maintain a rapport for a rapid and iterative feedback loop
- Drive the issue identification, analysis/introspection, mitigation, and reporting lifecycle with the System Performance engineers
- Thoroughly understand the different components of the software stack and maintain knowledge as things change, including expected behaviors and visual representation across various tools
- Show initiative and be a valued team member in our innovative, fast-paced, technical environment where cooperative teamwork across locations is the norm
- Analysis of simulated AV scenarios
- Accurately categorize events into a range of categories and types
- Tag logs to reflect search optimization and metrics which are appropriate for each
- Create and manage events on internal Triage developed tooling
- Investigate any logs that have extenuating circumstances that may have previously prevented a reviewer from completing their task, ending in a fully reviewed log
- Participate in the recurring standup to address new concerns and assignments that may need to be undertaken. This may include new information on which routes need to be prioritized and changes in the Triage process that need to be implemented
- Oversee and aid in the training of new team members and provide feedback on any misidentified incidents, and coach best practices to improve team efficiency
- Provide feedback on newly implemented tools and ways that they have impacted the review process in both a critical and positive manner
- Create and update process documentation as needed
- Able to travel domestically
- Other duties as assigned
Qualifications
To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. Reasonable accommodations may be made to

Search Technology Jobs in NevadaTechnology Jobs in Nevada: Frequently Asked Questions
Which technology companies sponsor F-1 STEM OPT visas in Nevada?
Nevada's most active technology STEM OPT sponsors include Switch (one of the largest data center operators in the U.S., headquartered in Las Vegas), Amazon Web Services, Caesars Entertainment's technology division, and IGT, a gaming technology company based in Reno. Smaller software firms and cybersecurity contractors in the Las Vegas metro also file STEM OPT-compatible Labor Condition Applications with regularity. Employer filing history through OFLC disclosure data is the most reliable way to verify sponsorship activity.
Which cities in Nevada have the most technology F-1 STEM OPT sponsorship jobs?
Las Vegas accounts for the majority of Nevada's technology STEM OPT roles, driven by the hospitality tech, data center, and gaming software industries concentrated there. Reno is the second-largest market, anchored by a growing cluster of technology employers including Tesla's Gigafactory support operations, Employers Holdings, and several cloud infrastructure firms. Henderson and North Las Vegas also host technology employers, particularly in cybersecurity and enterprise software.
How do I find technology F-1 STEM OPT sponsorship jobs in Nevada?
Migrate Mate lets you filter technology jobs in Nevada specifically by F-1 STEM OPT sponsorship eligibility, so you can see which employers have an active history of filing for STEM-designated roles. This is more targeted than a general job search because it surfaces companies whose Labor Condition Application filings confirm sponsorship activity in software engineering, data science, and IT roles in Nevada's Las Vegas and Reno markets.
What types of technology roles typically qualify for F-1 STEM OPT sponsorship in Nevada?
Roles that commonly qualify include software engineer, data analyst, data scientist, cybersecurity analyst, systems administrator, cloud infrastructure engineer, and machine learning engineer. These positions must be tied to a STEM-designated degree program as classified by the Department of Homeland Security's STEM Designated Degree Program List. Nevada employers in gaming technology, data centers, and enterprise software regularly hire for these titles under STEM OPT authorization. Confirming the SOC code and degree alignment with your DSO before accepting an offer is standard practice.
Are there any Nevada-specific considerations for F-1 STEM OPT sponsorship in technology?
Nevada does not have a state income tax, which affects net compensation comparisons but has no bearing on STEM OPT eligibility or the employer's E-Verify enrollment requirement. Employers in Nevada who hire STEM OPT workers must be enrolled in E-Verify, as required by USCIS for all STEM OPT extensions nationwide. Nevada's gaming and hospitality technology sector has unique compliance requirements that some employers cite when assessing sponsorship capacity, so confirming E-Verify status and a signed training plan before your OPT end date is important.
