Remote Autonomous Driving Engineer Jobs in Michigan

About the Company

At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners. Now a part of the Daimler family, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.
Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.

The Cloud Automation team is part of the Build & Tools group at Torc. We build and operate the foundational cloud infrastructure, security posture, and developer tooling that every engineering team relies on, spanning a multi-account AWS Organization, shared networking, identity and access management, hosted application platforms, CI/CD infrastructure, and cost visibility and efficiency programs that keep it all sustainable.

We're a distributed, remote-friendly team that collaborates daily through standups, planning sessions, and ad-hoc pairing and troubleshooting over Slack and Zoom. We share a business-hours on-call rotation (one week at a time). We value a sustainable pace, collective ownership, and developer empathy, partnering with our engineering customers to enable their success.

Nearly every engineering team at Torc builds and runs workloads in AWS, and Cloud Automation is the team that helps make that possible at scale. As a Software Engineer II, you will:

• Build and maintain Terraform-based infrastructure for AWS services spanning networking, compute, identity, and security
• Contribute to and evolve a multi-account AWS Organization managed with Control Tower and Account Factory for Terraform (AFT), including account vending workflows and organizational guardrails (e.g., SCPs)
• Advance cloud security initiatives, including IAM policy design, least-privilege access patterns, SIEM/security integrations, compliance automation, and posture management
• Design, deploy, and operate shared platforms such as EKS clusters, managed workflow platforms, and hosted application environments
• Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure and shared build tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Artifact tools) used across the engineering organization
• Contribute to cost analysis, attribution, and efficiency efforts to keep our cloud footprint sustainable
• Participate in the team's business-hours on-call rotation by triaging alerts and service requests
• Contribute to technical decisions through design reviews, documentation, runbooks, and operational standards

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience) with 3-5+ years of relevant experience
• AWS Cloud: Hands-on experience with core AWS services (IAM, VPC, EC2, S3, EKS/ECS, Lambda) and comfort working in a multi-account environment
• Infrastructure as Code: Proficiency with Terraform (modules, remote state, and CI-driven plan/apply workflows)
• Kubernetes: Hands-on experience operating Kubernetes clusters (preferably EKS), with a solid understanding of best practices for deployment, security, and day-to-day management in production environments.
• Networking & Security: Working knowledge of cloud networking (VPCs, peering, DNS, load balancing) and security fundamentals (least-privilege IAM, security groups, compliance tooling)
• Scripting & Automation: Proficiency in Python (or a similar language) to build internal tooling, automation, and operational scripts
• Collaboration & Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills and a collaborative working style; comfortable working on a distributed team
