Remote Astronomy Software Engineer information

What are Remote Astronomy Software Engineers?

Remote Astronomy Software Engineers are professionals who design, develop, and maintain software systems used in astronomical research and observation, all while working from a remote location. They collaborate with scientists and engineers to create tools for data collection, analysis, and visualization, often handling large datasets from telescopes or simulations. Their work supports discoveries in astrophysics by ensuring that astronomers have reliable, efficient software to process and interpret data. The remote aspect allows them to contribute to projects globally, often working with international research teams.

How does a Remote Astronomy Software Engineer typically collaborate with astronomers and other scientific team members?

As a Remote Astronomy Software Engineer, you will regularly collaborate with astronomers, data scientists, and research teams through virtual meetings, shared documentation platforms, and version control systems. Effective communication is essential, as you'll often translate complex scientific requirements into robust and efficient software solutions. You may be involved in code reviews, troubleshooting sessions, and the integration of software tools with astronomical instrumentation or data pipelines. Building strong remote working relationships and proactively seeking feedback are key to ensuring your software meets the evolving needs of scientific users.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Astronomy Software Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Astronomy Software Engineer, you need a solid background in computer science, experience with scientific programming, and a familiarity with astronomical concepts, often supported by a relevant degree. Proficiency in programming languages such as Python or C++, experience with data analysis tools, and knowledge of astronomical data systems like FITS or VO are typically required. Strong problem-solving, independent work ethic, and effective virtual communication skills set top candidates apart. These abilities are crucial for developing robust software solutions that support astronomical research, often in distributed and collaborative environments.

Job description

Mission Summary:
We're looking for a Software Engineer to design and develop Motional's Remote Vehicle Assistance team.  Remote Vehicle Assistance (RVA) project main goal is to overcome gaps in AV's Operation Design Domain to allow expanded operations using a remote human operator. This involves overriding onboard AV systems (perception, planner and control), and transmitting low latency sensor and semantic data out of the vehicle.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Develop, maintain and support C++ software that enables Remote Vehicle Assistance
  • Collaborate with C++ applications and UI engineers to pass data between software running on the autonomous vehicle and software running on remote stations
  • Collaborate with C++ software components on the autonomous vehicle to integrate Remote Vehicle Assistance capabilities
  • Test-driven development of new features supporting the autonomous vehicle
  • Develop and maintain a comprehensive integration and simulation test suite to test all software before it goes to production
  • Collaborate with systems and operations teams to develop a product that fits both customer needs and system requirements
  • Collaborate with testing and operations engineers to support Motional's on-road testing
  • Design, develop, and maintain RVA agent training tools, including the creation of comprehensive simulation scenarios.
  • Contribute to the development and support of next-generation RVA product features.

What We're Looking For:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field.
  • Minimum of 2 years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Proficient in C++
  • Working knowledge of SQL
  • Basic understand of Git, Bazel, JIRA, Confluence or similar development tools
  • Ability to learn how to use a motional specific custom SoC
  • Experience working on a linux Operating System
  • Capable of performing statistical performance of deployed features

Bonus Points (not required):

  • Experience with Modern C++ ( 11/14/17 or later)
  • Experience working with Python, Golang
  • Experience with QT, OpenGL

Why should you join us?

  • Work on cutting edge technologies
  • Flexi Benefits 
  • "Take as you need" Annual Leave
  • Transport Allowance
  • Medical & Insurance Coverage 
  • Dental 
  • 8-week Paternity & Maternity Leave

This role is hybrid from our Las Vegas office. It requires 3 in-office days each week.
