[Hiring] Senior Software Engineer, Autonomous Vehicle Performance Metrics @Motional

3d ago - Motional is hiring a remote Senior Software Engineer, Autonomous Vehicle Performance Metrics. πŸ’Έ Salary: $125,000 - $167,000 usd πŸ“Location: USA

Role Description

Motional is seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer to play a critical role in evaluating and improving the performance of our autonomous vehicle (AV) technology. This engineer will be responsible for developing and implementing metrics and software tools, primarily using Python, to effectively measure, analyze, and report on the performance of our AV systems. Their work will directly contribute to accelerating the development of safe and reliable autonomous technologies by transforming complex AV data into actionable insights for the organization.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Design AV Performance Analysis Pipelines:
    • Define, design, and implement key pipelines to extract on-road or simulated events and evaluate autonomous vehicle performance (e.g., lane change capability, oscillation/braking metrics, VRU emergence from occlusion).
  • Develop Metrics Software and AI-Powered Tools:
    • Leverage strong Python skills to develop frameworks, AI-powered tools, and systems for calculating, aggregating, and visualizing AV performance metrics from large datasets.
  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally:
    • Work with systems, software, AI, controls, simulation, and validation teams to understand needs and improve systems like Perception, Prediction, and Planning.
  • Ensure Data Quality and Validation:
    • Implement rigorous checks and validation processes to ensure the accuracy and integrity of data used for performance evaluation.
  • Document and Share Knowledge:
    • Create clear documentation for metrics and analysis tools, and share best practices with the engineering team.
  • Advance Technical Expertise:
    • Proactively evaluate and integrate new technologies and methodologies relevant to autonomous vehicles and software engineering.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field; a Master's degree is a plus.
  • Expert-level proficiency in Python and a strong understanding of modern software development principles and best practices.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, particularly in the context of complex system performance evaluation and data analysis.
  • Proficient with Git and standard version control workflows.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to effectively communicate technical concepts and results to diverse audiences (engineers, product managers, leadership).
  • Proven ability to work both independently and effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team.
  • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to data quality, accuracy, and rigorous testing.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile, continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) environment.

Requirements

  • Experience working with autonomous vehicle sensor data (e.g., LiDAR, camera, radar) - Bonus Points (not required).
  • Familiarity with simulation environments and data generated from AV simulations - Bonus Points (not required).
  • Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Looker) for presenting performance metrics - Bonus Points (not required).
  • Knowledge of statistical analysis and machine learning techniques relevant to performance evaluation - Bonus Points (not required).

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, vision insurance.
  • 401k with a company match.
  • Health saving accounts.
  • Life insurance.
  • Pet insurance.
  • And more.
