Full job description
Zoox's Robot Software Infrastructure team is seeking a passionate software engineer to help develop Robot software and infrastructure to advance the common performant operating system that powers several devices on our vehicle including Autonomy systems. This team develops platform-level software and services, including operating systems that enable complex, hardware-accelerated workloads critical for autonomous driving on automotive-grade hardware.
We work closely with cross-functional teams—including application software engineering, release management, hardware engineering, manufacturing and operations—to support vehicle development and deployment at scale. If you are excited to explore a wide problem space and are mindful of how components fit within a larger system, you may be a great fit!
In this role, you will:
Design, develop, and maintain end-to-end continuous integration and validation toolchains for the operating system platform that powers various on-bot devices and applications on the Robotaxi
Architect and implement platform-level software to support robust and scalable robot software infrastructure
Configure and manage embedded Linux build systems (e.g., Yocto) and bootloader processes (e.g., U-Boot) to ensure reliable system startup and maintenance
Develop and optimize device drivers and kernel-space components using C, C++, or Rust to meet performance and reliability requirements
Collaborate cross-functionally to support seamless integration and delivery of the OS platform, triage issues, support new hardware bring-up and manufacturing functions
