Job description

The Core Firmware team is responsible for building the foundation upon which Zoox-owned firmware applications are built. Core Firmware engineers work with a diverse set of microcontrollers and application processors. We make sure the embedded platforms available to Firmware and Software teams are safe, stable, performant, secure, and flexible. Many of these things are often at odds with each other, and navigating these tradeoffs while shipping code that our autonomous vehicle platform depends on is core to the job.

 

As a member of the Core Firmware MCU Platforms team, you will build foundational software/firmware that is used across different microcontrollers in the vehicle. The software/firmware we write touches many different microcontrollers and provides the foundation on which other teams build applications and interact with hardware on these respective devices. We work with many partner teams both within and outside of the Firmware organization. In this role, you will be able to flex your skills developed in the embedded world in an environment that extends well beyond it. You will also be a key player to ensure the software/firmware used by other teams and multiple microcontrollers is safe, stable, robust, and secure.

Responsibilities
  • Develop on-vehicle embedded software/firmware in C and C++ in a real-time environment, and as appropriate, the supporting tools to tie it to Zoox's ecosystem of off-vehicle infrastructure (Python in most cases)

  • Author requirements and design documentation to craft what is to be built, why it needs to be that way, and what your specific solution looks like

  • Work with our Component V&V Engineers to keep the quality bar high through the coordination of test strategies

  • Troubleshoot and root-cause problems from the field, starting at the system level, often ending deep in the inner workings of our platform

Qualifications
  • 10+ YOE

    Experience in,

    • C/C++ development

    • Systems programming in a real-time (RTOS) environment

    • Understanding RTOS platform development

    • Understanding how to link software/firmware to hardware

    • Understanding how bootloaders on MCUs generally work

Bonus Qualifications
  • Python development

  • Network/CAN programming experience

  • Extensive bootloader experience

  • MCU Security

$200,000 - $250,000 a year
Compensation
There are three major components to compensation for this position: salary, Amazon Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Zoox Stock Appreciation Rights.

Leveling, as well as positioning within a level, is determined by a range of factors, including, but not limited to, a candidate's relevant years of experience, domain knowledge, and interview performance. The salary range listed in this posting is representative of the range of levels Zoox is considering for this position.
 
Zoox also offers a comprehensive package of benefits, including paid time off (e.g. sick leave, vacation, bereavement), unpaid time off, Zoox Stock Appreciation Rights, Amazon RSUs, health insurance, long-term care insurance, long-term and short-term disability insurance, and life insurance.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
