Job description

We are looking for a Software Engineer with deep expertise in computational geometry to join our Motion Planning team. In this role, you'll design and implement the geometric foundations that power mission-critical systems across our stack. You'll be building a high-performance geometry library that is robust, mathematically rigorous, and optimized for modern hardware, enabling advanced applications in autonomy, simulation, and beyond.

What you'll do:

  • Build the core library: Design, implement, and maintain a library of computational geometry algorithms in modern C++.
  • Develop primitives: Create and optimize fundamental operations, such as distances, intersections, projections, polygon operations, and convex hulls, for complex geometries.
  • Maximize performance: Profile and optimize code for CPU architectures (especially x86), leveraging cache-efficient data layouts, and instruction-level parallelism.
  • Ensure reliability: Establish a testing framework to guarantee numerical stability, robustness, and correctness at scale.
  • Enable visibility: Develop tools for visualizing, debugging, and validating geometric computations.
  • Collaborate & integrate: Partner with other engineering teams to design clean APIs and integrate the geometry library into larger systems.
  • Innovate: Research and apply state-of-the-art methods from academia and industry to tackle novel geometric challenges.

What you'll bring:

  • Strong background in computational geometry, linear algebra, and applied mathematics (MS, PhD, or equivalent experience).
  • 4+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful experience in production C++.
  • Deep grasp of CPU/GPU architecture, cache/memory layouts, SIMD, and parallel algorithms.
  • A rigorous, test-driven mindset with high standards for software quality and mathematical correctness.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills, able to work across teams and explain complex ideas clearly.
  • Hands-on, proactive approach to problem-solving and performance tuning.

Bonus Points:

  • GPU programming experience with CUDA or OpenCL.
  • Experience with motion planning, trajectory optimization, prediction, or controls for autonomous systems.
  • Proficiency in Python or TypeScript for prototyping, tooling, or bindings.
  • Familiarity with SIMD instruction sets (AVX, SSE).
  • Experience with libraries like Clipper or Boost.Geometry.
  • Robotics/AV background (planning, mapping, SLAM, 3D graphics/CAD/physics sim).

What we offer:

  • Competitive compensation package including equity and annual bonuses
  • Excellent Medical, Dental, and Vision plans through Kaiser Permanente, Cigna, and  MetLife (including a medical plan with infertility benefits)
  • MetLife Legal Services, Identity & Fraud Protection, Hospital Indemnity Insurance, Accident Insurance, & Critical Illness Insurance
  • Flexible PTO, 10 paid holidays, and generous parental leave policies
  • Our office is centrally located in Mountain View, CA
  • Office perks: dog-friendly, free catered lunch, a fully stocked kitchen, and free EV charging
  • Long Term Disability, Short Term Disability, Life Insurance
  • Wellbeing Benefits - Headspace through Cigna, Calm through Kaiser, One Medical, Gympass, Spring Health through Cigna, Rula (mental health navigation) 
  • Fidelity 401(k)
  • Commuter, FSA, Dependent Care FSA, HSA
  • Various incentive programs (referral bonuses, patent bonuses, etc.)
