Senior/ Staff Software Engineer - Simulation Workload Orchestration at Zoox
San Mateo, CA 94404
About the Job
Foster City, CASoftware – Simulation /Full-time/ HybridCome join us at Zoox to participate in the transportation revolution with building self-driving vehicles! Our mission is to make personal transportation safer, cleaner, and more enjoyable for everyone
Simulation is essential to Zoox’s mission
Zoox uses simulation to develop our driving software, validate safety, and analyze our real-world performance
Our team’s work directly impacts how rapidly and successfully Zoox will achieve its goals.We are looking for experienced developers (5+ years experience) to build a massively scalable pipeline for orchestrating the execution of simulations and processing of the results
This mission critical pipeline will be highly parallel, manage various stages of execution, ensure correct data flow and coordinate the processing of the results
This is an ideal opportunity for an innovative Software Engineer to build the foundation and the pipeline that can exponentially scale up the execution of the simulations and at the same time meet the diverse needs of processing the results.ResponsibilitiesDesign the simulation execution pipeline for exponential growth, with efficient resource utilizationIntegrate with other systems via message queuesCollaborate with internal teams for requirements and API designLead/own development of highly scalable featuresCommunicate effectively with internal customersEnsure correctness and 24x7 stability of the entire systemQualificationsBachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related fieldExperience in coming up with high level design to meet user requirementsGreat communication skillsExcellent Python skillsExperience in designing and building complex data processing systems at scale with performance tuningExperience in operating a workload/workflow management system (e.g
Slurm, Apache Airflow/Beam/Flink)Experience in developing distributed systems using asynchronous communication (e.g
Kafka, Kinesis)Experience with data processing frameworks (e.g
Spark, MapReduce, AWS EMR)8+ years of experience in a related fieldBonus QualificationsKnowledge in AWS, CI/CD tools, KubernetesExperience with data storage and analytics systems (e.g
AWS RDS/DynamoDB, Elasticsearch, Databricks)Experience with SQL and data warehouseKnowledge in object-oriented programming with languages (e.g
Java, Kotlin, C++)CompensationThere are three major components to compensation for this position: salary, Amazon Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Zoox Stock Appreciation Rights
The salary will range from $203,000 - $293,000
A sign-on bonus may be part of a compensation package
Compensation will vary based on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience
Zoox also offers a comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off (e.g
sick leave, vacation, bereavement), unpaid time off, Zoox Stock Appreciation Rights, Amazon RSUs, health insurance, long-term care insurance, long-term and short-term disability insurance, and life insurance.About ZooxZoox is developing the first ground-up, fully autonomous vehicle fleet and the supporting ecosystem required to bring this technology to market
Sitting at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, and design, Zoox aims to provide the next generation of mobility-as-a-service in urban environments
We’re looking for top talent that shares our passion and wants to be part of a fast-moving and highly execution-oriented team.Follow us on LinkedInA Final Note:You do not need to match every listed expectation to apply for this position
