On-demand teledriven car rental service
Ever imagined saying, “I helped launch the future of transportation”?
We’re rewriting the rules of urban mobility. At Vay, customers tap a button and a car arrives - with no one inside - powered by our world-first Remote Driving technology on real public streets.
We’re live in Las Vegas and scaling fast, powered by a strategic investment of up to $410 million from Grab. Our mission is simple: replace private car ownership with a faster, cleaner, door-to-door mobility model. If you want to build something real, visible, and genuinely transformative, you’ll feel right at home here.
As a Production Vehicle Technician at Vay, you'll play a hands-on role in bringing the future of mobility to life. You'll help transform vehicles into remotely operated systems, working with cutting-edge Remote Driving technology as we scale our fleet in Las Vegas.
This isn't your typical technician role. You'll work across mechanical, electrical, and advanced vehicle systems, tackling technical challenges that don't always come with a manual. Working closely with our engineering and operations teams, you'll contribute directly to how we build, test, and improve our technology.
If you love building things, figuring out how they work, and seeing the results of your work out on the road, this is your opportunity.
Build the future of mobility: Assemble, install, and integrate mechanical, electrical, communication, camera, and sensor systems into our remotely operated vehicles and Tele-stations.
Test and troubleshoot: Perform system validation, diagnose faults, and resolve technical issues using multimeters, precision instruments, and computer-based diagnostic tools.
Solve technical challenges: Identify and troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and software-related issues, including those involving EV systems, embedded electronics, and Linux-based platforms.
Drive continuous improvement: Identify opportunities to improve assembly processes, reduce inefficiencies, and contribute ideas that make our workshop more effective.
Own quality and safety: Maintain accurate digital build and maintenance records while ensuring high standards of workshop safety, quality, and organization.
Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills, including wiring, soldering, and electronic system diagnostics.
Experience assembling, modifying, or integrating complex vehicle systems, ideally including prototype, experimental, or custom vehicle builds.
Willingness and ability to learn Linux-based systems and computer-based diagnostic tools.
Familiarity with EV technology, embedded systems, cameras, sensors, or autonomous vehicle hardware is a strong advantage.
A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to troubleshoot unfamiliar technical challenges and know when to seek support.
Strong attention to detail, a safety-first mindset, and the ability to collaborate effectively with engineering and operations teams.
A technical trade qualification, Associate Degree, or equivalent practical experience. ASE or manufacturer certifications are a plus.
Flexibility to support occasional overtime or holiday work when operationally required.

Vay provides an on-demand, by-the-minute electric car rental service powered by teledriving, where customers request a vehicle via an app and a trained teledriver remotely drives the car to the customer. The customer then takes control to drive, and a teledriver later handles parking or delivering the car to the next user. The company also licenses its teledriving technology to other businesses (B2B) and collaborates with autonomous trucking tech, such as Kodiak Robotics. Its service began in Las Vegas after launching in 2024, with offices in Berlin and Portland. Differences from competitors include operating a car without a person inside on public streets in both Europe and the U.S., a dual B2C and B2B model, and a focus on combining remote driving with fleet management to reduce ride costs. Vay aims to provide a more affordable mobility option, roughly half the price of traditional ride-hailing, while expanding teledriving to more cities and logistics applications.
