Motional is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to develop and deliver automated workflows, intelligent tooling, and insightful analytics that enable our autonomy stack to scale. You will transform massive amounts of data into actionable engineering insights, ensuring software releases for autonomous vehicles are robust, validated, and ready for the road.

What You'll Do

Design and implement sophisticated automation to categorize and explain complex system behaviors by leveraging advanced data modeling to accelerate solutions.
Lead the creation of high-impact performance visualization tools that translate raw metrics into clear, actionable insights regarding on-road performance.
Help evolve release processes toward a highly automated deployment framework that maintains quality while improving efficiency.
Enhance virtual testing ecosystems, ensuring simulation suites provide high fidelity feedback necessary to properly understand the release.
Work within a large, multi-disciplinary codebase to ensure seamless integration between planning, motion, and controls teams.

What We're Looking For

Extensive experience building production-grade applications, tools, and pipelines using Python.
Comfortable navigating and contributing to large, complex codebases where modularity and documentation are key.
Proven track record of delivering software in a production environment, including familiarity with CI/CD, version control at scale, and rigorous release cycles.
Curious about data and possess the ability to extract meaningful patterns from noisy, high-dimensional datasets.
Passionate about a driverless future and understand the high stakes of deploying software that interacts with the physical world.

Nice to Have

Experience with C++ in a Linux environment.
Familiarity with Machine Learning frameworks or Large Language Model (LLM) integration.
Background in robotics middleware (ROS, DDS) or autonomous systems.
