Job description

Mission Summary:

We are looking for a staff engineer to improve the quality, reliability, and robustness of our subsystems for decision making, motion planning, and controls. You will collaborate with the team to implement the highest value and highest priority quality improvements, including documenting and iterating ICDs, enhancing error checking, diagnostics and status reporting, improving compiler support and static analysis integration, eliminating memory allocation at runtime and building subsystem validation capabilities. Developing and deploying agentic AI agents to help with implementing and enforcing these new design and validation principals will be a key deliverable in this role.
What you'll be doing:

  • Your expertise will help the team deliver the critical quality initiatives before commercial driverless launch
  • You'll work closely with subsystem owners and experts to implement the identified initiatives
  • Direct results will include enhanced software quality assessments before software reaches the vehicle, improved unrecoverable MRM rates, and root cause analysis of complex issues within the Planning and Controls stack reported by the triage team.
  • You'll have the opportunity to learn and advance your skills through the application of advanced AI agents, including agentic agents, to help streamline and enhance the development process
  • Present your work to the team to demonstrate how to maintain the highest level of software quality.

What we're looking for:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field. A Master's or Ph.D. is preferred
  • You're an expert in C++ software optimization and defensive programming for embedded systems (ie. MISRA), including functional safety rated systems
  • Comfortable navigating and contributing to large, complex codebases where modularity and documentation are key.
  • You've designed and developed architecture and tools to verify complex subsystems of autonomous vehicles
  • Experience in Interface Contract Documentation and contract enforcement
  • Experience in compiler integration and optimization of complex code bases
  • Capable of working across teams to identify, prioritize, and execute software quality and performance improvements

Bonus Points (not required):

  • Experience with autonomous vehicles or vehicle automation systems
  • Functional safety processes and implementation

We encourage a hybrid schedule with in-office time at one of our locations in Boston, Pittsburgh, or Las Vegas to support collaboration, or this role can be fully remote.

The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors including but not limited to specific skills, experience and expertise, role location, certifications, licenses, and business needs. The estimated compensation range listed in this job posting reflects base salary only. This role may include additional forms of compensation such as a bonus or company equity.

Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We're driven by something more.

Our journey is always people first.

We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We're creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it's not only good for our business, it's the right thing to do.

Scale up, not starting up.

Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We're driven to scale; we're moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.
