About the role

TITLE: Software EngineerENVIRONMENT:Autonomous vehiclesLOCATION: Oakland, CA HybridCOMPENSATION RANGE: $210,000.00 - $300,000.00 DOQDEGREE REQUIREMENTS: Bachelor's DegreeCITIZENSHIP: Must be a U.S. Citizen or Green Card Holder and able to work for any U.S. Employer EXPERIENCE LEVEL: 5+ years experienceNUMBER OF POSITIONS AVAILABLE: 1POSITION SUMMARY:Looking for a software engineer with 5+ years of experience in autonomous systems or robotics who has strong C++ skills and hands-on experience developing autonomy software that runs on real vehicles. You should be comfortable working across the autonomy stack, perception, localization, planning, decision-making, and vehicle behavior, and have a track record of shipping production-quality algorithms on physical hardware. Bonus points if you've worked in autonomous driving, aerospace, defense, or maritime systems.
What you'll do:
  • Design, implement, and deploy production autonomy software in C++ that runs onboard our autonomous maritime vehicles
  • Develop and integrate algorithms for autonomous perception, localization, planning, navigation, decision-making, and collision/terrain avoidance
  • Contribute to sensor fusion work — integrating radar, camera, and other sensor modalities into a unified data stream for situational awareness and path planning
  • Build and maintain local and global planners that consume map data and sensor data to determine optimal routes and vehicle behavior
  • Evaluate algorithmic approaches and make practical tradeoffs among accuracy, robustness, computational cost, latency, and reliability on constrained onboard compute (Nvidia Jetson)
  • Use simulation, testing, telemetry, and real-world vehicle data to validate autonomous behavior and diagnose failures — including building your own tooling (often in Python) to accelerate the development cycle
  • Contribute to the architecture and evolution of our next-generation autonomy stack as part of a multi-year roadmap to expand autonomous capabilities
