About The Position

Performance Driven Workforce is hiring full-time Operational Support Drivers in San Francisco, California, to support Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicle testing for a leading automotive Tier 1 supplier.

Mandatory paid training is required before independent driving. Training includes one week of classroom instruction and one to two weeks of in-vehicle training, covering safety protocols, system tools, and hands-on practice. Shifts are either an AM day shift from 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM or a PM swing shift from 2:00 PM to 10:30 PM. Shifts are scheduled Monday through Sunday, and weekend availability is required based on the schedule. Pay is $28 per hour.
