Staff Software Engineer, Command Center

Job description

Join us as a key technical leader in Las Vegas as we launch our commercial Autonomous Vehicle (AV) ride service. We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer with a strong product mindset to bridge the gap between our Operations partners and our global Engineering team. You will lead the development of critical operational tools—like fleet management and orchestration systems—while shaping the roadmap to ensure our technology meets real-world needs.

Motional’s Las Vegas office is located less than 10 miles from the Las Vegas strip at 730 E Pilot Road and is home to one of the largest fleets of self-driving vehicles.

Job requirements

  • 8+ years of professional experience as a software engineer, with a proven track record of designing and building distributed systems.
  • Strong "Product" Mindset: You are obsessed with value. You can look at a chaotic operational floor and architect a software solution that brings order and efficiency.
  • Experience supporting production systems with a customer-centric mindset and strong communication skills.
  • Ability to manage stakeholders (Ops, Product) and communicate effectively with a remote engineering team to get things done without owning the entire stack.
  • Proficiency in Golang / Python for web service and scripting.
  • Experience building cloud services using SQL and NoSQL databases.
  • A Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
