Remote Automotive Embedded Software Engineer Jobs in Oregon

Upstart's Developer Platform team enables engineers to build, test, and validate software quickly, consistently, and with confidence. We own foundational systems and workflows engineers rely on before software reaches production, including build and continuous integration infrastructure, ephemeral environments, shared test infrastructure, and developer tooling.

Our goal is to make the path from code change to deployable software fast, reliable, and self-service. We build platforms that provide trusted feedback early, enable engineers to validate changes in production-like environments, and make common development and testing capabilities easy to adopt across engineering. We partner closely with Delivery, Cloud Platform, Site Reliability Engineering, Security, and product engineering teams to create a cohesive developer experience.

As a Software Engineer II, Developer Platform at Upstart, you will build and operate systems used by engineers across Upstart to develop, test, and prepare software for production. You'll work across continuous integration infrastructure, Kubernetes-based ephemeral environments, test infrastructure, and developer tooling while independently delivering well-scoped engineering projects and contributing to technical design.

• Build and improve services, infrastructure, and developer tooling that power continuous integration, ephemeral environments, and automated testing across Upstart
• Develop scalable Kubernetes- and AWS-based capabilities that enable engineers to create and use production-like environments through reliable, self-service workflows
• Build shared infrastructure for test execution, orchestration, environment setup, and results to provide engineers with fast, trustworthy feedback during development and continuous integration
• Improve platform reliability, performance, observability, and cost efficiency by diagnosing recurring issues and implementing durable software and infrastructure improvements
• Replace manual or fragmented developer workflows with reusable APIs, automation, and platform capabilities that simplify common development tasks
• Use AI throughout software development and problem solving, and identify opportunities for AI-enabled workflows and capabilities that improve developer productivity across Upstart

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field (or its equivalent), plus 3 years of professional software engineering experience
• Experience developing production software using one or more general-purpose programming languages
• Experience designing, building, testing, and operating production software or infrastructure
• Experience working with cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, continuous integration systems, developer tooling, or backend services
• Experience independently delivering well-scoped software engineering projects from technical design through production operation
• Demonstrated experience using AI assisted development tools across multiple stages of the software engineering lifecycle, with an interest in continuously evolving how you use these tools as their capabilities advance

• Experience with Kubernetes control-plane engineering, AWS, containers, or infrastructure as code
• Knowledge of developer tooling, continuous integration systems, internal developer platforms, or shared test infrastructure
• Experience building or operating ephemeral or production-like development and testing environments
• Experience building APIs, services, command-line tools, test orchestration, or automation used by other engineers
• Experience using AI-assisted development tools across the software engineering lifecycle or building AI-enabled developer workflows and automation
