An ad on the business and employment social media site, LinkedIn, was seeking a test driver in the Houston area. Other ads are posted throughout Texas.
The official title is “Vehicle Operator, Autopilot,” but the job description boils down to driving a car while under Autopilot to collect data.
What is the Autopilot feature?
“Autopilot is an advanced driver assistance system that enhances safety and convenience behind the wheel,” according to a description on Tesla’s website. “When used properly, Autopilot reduces your overall workload as a driver. Each new Tesla vehicle is equipped with multiple external cameras and powerful vision processing to provide an additional layer of safety.”
The software has been under fire following an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
