Jobs at Rivian (Now Hiring) — 443 open — Page 10

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract. 

As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations. 

The Senior Validation Fleet Manager ensures the right vehicles are available, correctly configured, roadworthy, and visible to the teams that need them so validation work can happen on the right assets at the right time. This role partners closely with V&V leads and cross-functional stakeholders to recommend fleet actions, readiness priorities, and asset allocation decisions based on vehicle maturity, content, test intent, and fleet status. Final validation priority and test execution decisions remain with the responsible V&V leads and program owners. This role is also highly execution-oriented and owns much of the day-to-day manual coordination required to keep the fleet moving, including Jira ticket management, asset tracking, readiness follow-up, and issue visibility across validation and engineering teams.

• Own day-to-day validation fleet allocation, scheduling, and shared asset planning across vehicle tests, workshop support, off-hours usage, audits, and decommission coordination. 
• Partner closely with V&V leads and stakeholders to recommend fleet actions, readiness sequencing, and asset prioritization based on vehicle maturity, content, constraints, and test needs, while leads and program owners retain final decisions. 
• Own planning and scheduling of the shared development vehicles. 
• Execute the manual fleet management work required to keep assets test-ready, including Jira ticket creation and follow-up, issue tracking, status updates, asset ownership hygiene, and coordination of open fleet actions to closure. 
• Maintain clear visibility of vehicle usage, location, ownership, readiness, and blockers through regular reporting that enables faster decisions and continuous improvement. 
• Coordinate and act as the primary liaison with the Test and Development team to balance validation usage and fleet upkeep needs. 
• Support grounding, inspection, containment, and other fleet action workflows by identifying affected VINs, tracking closure, and maintaining action visibility. 
• Act as a cross-functional facilitator who improves fleet processes, clarifies responsibilities, and helps teams work through ambiguity during compressed validation timelines.

• Typically 6+ years of related experience in fleet operations, vehicle testing, validation support, prototype operations, or similar hands-on technical coordination roles. 
• Strong working knowledge of validation fleet operations, vehicle usage planning, transport and movement coordination, fleet status tracking, and asset readiness management. 
• Working familiarity with vehicle maturity, content differences, and basic test intent, with the ability to make practical day-to-day recommendations and escalate tradeoffs appropriately. 
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex assignments independently, balance multiple priorities, and coordinate effectively across validation, T&D, engineering, workshop, and operations teams. 
• Strong data hygiene, reporting discipline, and comfort owning detailed execution work using Jira, spreadsheets, fleet tools, dashboards, or similar systems in a fast-moving environment.
