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

• 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
