About Zoox
Zoox is transforming mobility with fully autonomous, electric vehicles designed from the ground up for a driverless future. Our mission is to make transportation safer, more sustainable, and accessible to everyone. At Zoox, innovation, collaboration, and a bold vision for the future drive everything we do.

About Our Internship Program
Zoox’s internship program offers hands-on experience with cutting-edge technology, mentorship from some of the industry’s brightest minds, and the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to real projects. We seek interns who demonstrate strong academic performance, engagement beyond the classroom, intellectual curiosity, and a genuine interest in Zoox’s mission.

About the Role
We are looking for a sharp, detail-oriented Fintech Operations Intern to join us for the summer. This isn't your typical "coffee-running" internship. You will be stepping directly into the cockpit of our brand-new Payments Platform.

As we test and scale our resilient financial systems, you will be the guardian of our gift card allocation and bookkeeping processes. You will literally help Zoox turn on its commercial engine, ensuring that every dollar is tracked and every process runs smoothly. If you love operational ownership and want to see your work directly impact a commercial launch, this role is for you.

In this Role, You Will...

  • Take full end-to-end ownership of the bookkeeping and allocation system for Zoox gift cards
  • Keep rigorous track of cash flows and inventory related to the payments platform, ensuring absolute accuracy during critical testing phases
  • Partner with the broader finance and engineering teams to stress-test our resilient payment architecture
  • Don’t just run the playbook—help write it. You will analyze the current operational process, identify bottlenecks, and propose/implement scalable improvements
  • Act as a bridge between operations and finance to ensure seamless data flow and reporting

Requirements

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Operations, or a related field
  • Good academic standing
  • Able to commit to a 12-week internship during the following summer 2026 cohort: June 15th - September 4th
  • Ability to relocate to the Bay Area, CA for the duration of the internship
  • Interns at Zoox may not use any proprietary information they are working on as part of their thesis, any published work with their university, or to be distributed to anyone outside of Zoox

Qualifications

  • You're detail-oriented and view bookkeeping as a puzzle where every piece must fit perfectly
  • You enjoy building systems, organizing data, and figuring out how to make manual processes faster and more automated
  • You thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment (like a company launching a massive new platform)
  • Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets

Bonus Qualifications

  • Familiarity with fintech tools, SQL, or accounting software
  • You have a passion for autonomous vehicles, robotics, or mobility-as-a-service
  • Prior experience in an operations-heavy role or a startup environment
Compensation
The monthly salary for this position is $5,500. Compensation will vary based on geographic location and level of education. Additional benefits may include medical insurance, and a housing stipend (relocation assistance will be offered based on eligibility).

About Zoox
Zoox is developing the first ground-up, fully autonomous vehicle fleet and the supporting ecosystem required to bring this technology to market. Sitting at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, and design, Zoox aims to provide the next generation of mobility-as-a-service in urban environments. We’re looking for top talent that shares our passion and wants to be part of a fast-moving and highly execution-oriented team.
