Overview

We are looking for a generalist C++ software engineer to support our robotics and embedded systems development . In this role, you will work with NVIDIA Jetson embedded Linux, microcontroller on metal, automation frameworks and build systems (Ansible, Bazel), and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, BigQuery, AWS, OpenTofu). You’ll be responsible for building reliable pipelines, automating deployments, and contributing directly to software development in C++, Python, and Rust. The focus of this role is to expand our vehicle's ability to support emerging capabilities, including bringing up new sensors, managing logging and data offload streams, and coordinating between hardware and software. This requires interfacing with hardware-in-the-loop testing, design with constrained compute resources, and software that can evolve quickly to new hardware and customer requirements.
