Tesla is signaling a potential expansion of its ride-hailing service to New York City by recruiting personnel to test its driver-assistance technology on the city's streets. The company is hiring a driver to operate prototype vehicles in Queens, focusing on data collection for up to 8 hours daily. This full-time role requires knowledge of autonomous systems and offers a potential hourly wage exceeding $30. Following a limited pilot of driverless taxis at its Austin headquarters, Tesla is looking to expand its service nationwide, with recent operations launched in San Francisco and plans for Nevada and Arizona.
