Software Engineer - Fullstack Web

The Software Systems Infrastructure team supports the broader Software Systems organization by developing internal tools, optimizing development processes, and ensuring that all safety-critical software meets the highest standards for production vehicles.
We are looking for a Software Engineer that will help design and build infrastructure and tools to automate, track, and audit the processes required to develop safety-critical software that will redefine transportation in the 21st century. Drawing on principles from avionics, automotive, and other safety-critical industries, you will collaborate with software, systems, and firmware engineers across the Zoox software stack—from cutting-edge AI perception to mission-critical RTOS and middleware components.

• Be comfortable to whip up quick scripts to automate tasks, such as generating metrics, establishing traceability, etc, when necessary.
• You will be developing and maintaining tools that support cross-functional teams in their efforts towards developing software that adheres to a High Assurance Process.
• Autonomous vehicles have some of the largest, most complex software ever shipped in a safety-critical environment; solving that problem is one of the most exciting technical challenges of our lifetime.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, mathematics, computer science, or a related field
• 5+ years of industry experience working with large codebases and full-stack systems
• Strong proficiency in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and modern frontend frameworks (e.g., React, Vue.js, Angular)
