Senior Software Engineer - Autonomy Integration

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Implement solutions to close integration gaps and solve problems blocking integration progress
• Debug complex system issues spanning multiple teams and hardware/software domains
• Produce configurations and related tests for new platforms, leading the integration efforts for new platforms
• Design, implement, and execute tests to detect regressions and validate system stability
• Drive cross functional alignment and prioritization by clear communication on integration issues and blockers
• Apply systems-level thinking to view complex robotics challenges holistically, diagnosing how software modules, hardware components, and network interfaces interact to cause failures
• Navigate seamlessly between different levels of abstraction—zooming out to architect system-wide fixes and zooming in to debug low-level component code as the problem demands

Job requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field and 4+ years of relevant experience (or Master's degree and 2+ years of relevant experience, or PhD)
• Strong software proficiency, particularly in python and C++
• Tenacious attitude to resolving problems and finding root causes
• Willingness to embrace changing priorities in a dynamic environment
• “Team-first” mentality with a strong desire to collaborate across organizational boundaries to untangle issues
• Commitment to clear, precise communication when working with technically diverse stakeholders
• Exceptional systems-thinking capabilities: a proven ability to look at a sprawling robotics problem, connect the dots across multiple domains, and engineer a cohesive solution
• Capacity to operate fluidly across levels of abstraction, moving comfortably from high-level system architecture design down to deep-in-the-weeds algorithmic debugging
