Shift Supervisor - Day Shift
Job description
The Shift Supervisor manages the people and truck side of daily operations, shift by shift. You are the on-the-ground supervisor who makes sure our trucks are compliant, our crews meet the standard that autonomous vehicle operations demand, and every mission leaves and lands safely. On day shift you run the highest mission volume and the tightest customer timing we operate, with the full operations and engineering team around you. You will coach in real time, hold the safety and compliance line, manage crew fatigue across extended days, and hand off a clean, complete picture at the end of shift. This role carries direct reports.
