About
Our team develops full-stack systems that manage startup behavior, runtime settings, and software/hardware configuration across vehicles and cities—ensuring safe, consistent operation at scale.
Example Challenges: How should a vehicle determine what to do when it wakes up? How can a fleet coordinate updates across time zones for 24/7 service? How do we detect and recover from misconfigurations in runtime?
If you're excited to work on foundational systems that keep a robotaxi fleet running smoothly in the real world, we’d love to talk.
Responsibilities
Design and build robust embedded applications and web microservices for the configuration and runtime settings system
Develop startup-time and runtime auditing/control of software and hardware settings
Own service architecture that connects vehicle and cloud for dynamic configuration
Drive technical direction and lead large-scale, cross-team projects with independence and critical thinking
Collaborate and communicate effectively across cross-functional teams, including vehicle software, tools, and operations, to drive successful project outcomes
Qualifications
8+ years of combined experience in device/edge software, cloud systems architecture and development
Deep experience designing, building, and operating cloud-based microservices and cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker, etc.)
Proficient in Python, Kotlin or Java, and REST APIs, with familiarity in C++, and proven experience building data pipelines and APIs between cloud and edge devices.
Strong systems thinking and ability to understand complex, cross-cutting architectures
Proven track record of steering large-scale projects from initial concept through to successful deployment.
Bonus Qualifications
Experience in robotics, autonomy, or large-scale distributed systems
Familiarity with vehicle environments, maps, GPS, and OTA updates
Salary Range: $219,000 - $263,000 a year.
