    • Collaborate closely with ML research, ML Training platform, and data engineering teams to understand their needs and integrate solutions seamlessly.
    • Communicate complex technical concepts and strategies to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

What We're Looking For:

    • Extensive experience with workflow orchestration frameworks such as Airflow or Step Functions.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Strong programming skills in Python. C++ experience is a plus.
    • Deep knowledge of data storage formats such as Parquet, Iceberg, and Lance and understand their tradeoffs.
    • Strong knowledge of cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP) solutions and their product offerings.
    • Prior experience with building data warehouses or lakehouse architectures at a machine learning or robotics company.

Bonus Points (not required):

  • Prior experience in autonomous vehicles (AV) is a plus.
  • Prior experience with Bazel based build 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.

Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We're driven by something more.

Our journey is always people first.

We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We're creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it's not only good for our business, it's the right thing to do.

Scale up, not starting up.

Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We're driven to scale; we're moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.

Formed as a joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and Aptiv, Motional is fundamentally changing how people move through their lives.
