About the role

  • You will be the engineer who keeps the autonomy stack healthy, fast, and trustworthy.
  • This role spans code maintenance and platform quality, the validation and simulation pipeline that gates every release, and the triage-and-fix loop that turns reported road cases into resolved issues.
  • If you take pride in a codebase that stays clean as it scales and a validation system that catches regressions before they reach the road, this is your role.

Responsibilities

  • Build and operate the validation and regression pipeline, including scenario suites, metric definitions, sim-vs-road consistency checks, and release-gating criteria.
  • Build the debugging and observability tooling (logging, replay, per-frame snapshotting) that makes failures fast to diagnose.
  • Partner with the algorithm engineers, the simulation team, and operations to keep the path from "case reported" to "fix verified" short and reliable.

Nice to have

  • Experience with simulation, regression frameworks, or validation pipelines for robotics or autonomous systems.
  • Experience with data and logging infrastructure (large-scale log replay, observability, debugging tooling).
  • Familiarity with autonomy, robotics, or another real-time, safety-critical domain.
  • Experience defining metrics and quality gates that engineering and product teams rely on for release decisions.

Benefits

  • United by a shared vision, we create groundbreaking solutions that propel the future of transportation.
  • Own and improve core autonomy code: refactoring, interface hygiene, build and runtime performance, and day-to-day maintenance to keep a fast-growing codebase maintainable.
