Senior Robotics Test Engineer
Job description
Who we are Pronto AI is a global leader in commercializing autonomous vehicle (AV) technology, deploying Autonomous Haulage Systems (AHS) that automate operations in mines, quarries, and construction sites worldwide. While much of the industry remains in R&D, we deliver real, production-ready autonomy that is already operating in the field. We are on a mission to make mining operations safer, smarter, and more efficient through cutting-edge technology, and we are building toward becoming the world’s first profitable AV technology company.
Job requirements
- 3+ years of software engineering experience, with significant work on testing infrastructure, developer tools, or distributed systems
- Strong Python — you'll write substantial code, much of it touching production-adjacent infrastructure
- Experience designing and building automation pipelines (CI/CD, test orchestration, build systems)
- Deep familiarity with at least one large-scale software platform — comfortable thinking in terms of APIs, abstractions, and platform usability
- Excellent debugging and systems thinking — you'll be reasoning about failures across simulation, networking, serialization, and CI infrastructure
- Comfort building greenfield — much of what you'll work on does not exist today
- Experience with robotics, autonomous vehicles, or other safety-critical systems
- Hands-on experience with simulation environments (Gazebo, CARLA, Isaac Sim, or proprietary)
