Job description

Mission Summary:

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to develop and deliver automated workflows, intelligent tooling and insightful analytics that enables our autonomy stack to scale. You will play a pivotal role in transforming massive amounts of data into actionable engineering insights, ensuring our software releases are robust, validated, and ready for the road.

What you'll be doing:

  • Develop Intelligent Tooling: You will design and implement sophisticated automation to categorize and explain complex system behaviors by leveraging advanced data modeling to accelerate solutions.
  • Drive Analytics: You'll lead the creation of high-impact performance visualization tools that translate raw metrics into clear, actionable insights regarding on-road performance.
  • Streamline Release Engineering: Your expertise will help the team evolve our release processes, moving toward a highly automated deployment framework that maintains quality while improving efficiency
  • Advance Simulation Capabilities: You'll have the opportunity to enhance our virtual testing ecosystems, ensuring our simulation suites provide the high fidelity feedback necessary to properly understand the release.
  • Collaborate at Scale: Work within a large, multi-disciplinary codebase to ensure seamless integration between planning, motion, and controls teams.

What we're looking for:

  • Extensive experience building production-grade applications, tools, and pipelines using Python.
  • Comfortable navigating and contributing to large, complex codebases where modularity and documentation are key.
  • Proven track record of delivering software in a production environment, including familiarity with CI/CD, version control at scale, and rigorous release cycles.
  • Curious about data and possess the ability to extract meaningful patterns from noisy, high-dimensional datasets.
  • Passionate about a driverless future and understand the high stakes of deploying software that interacts with the physical world.

Bonus Points(not required):ย 

  • Experience with C++ in a Linux environment.
  • Familiarity with Machine Learning frameworks or Large Language Model (LLM) integration.
  • Background in robotics middleware (ROS, DDS) or autonomous systems.

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.
