About
With customers at its core, Stack AV is focused on revolutionizing the way businesses transport goods, designing solutions to alleviate long-standing issues that have plagued the trucking industry including driver shortages, lagging efficiency in uptime per vehicle, overarching safety concerns, high operating costs, and elevated emission levels. By building safe and efficient autonomous trucking solutions, Stack AV is creating better and smarter supply chains for its partners, improving business outcomes for its customers, delivering goods to end-users faster, and ultimately moving the trucking industry forward.
What We’re Looking for:
We are looking for people who are passionate about delivering self-driving (L4) products that make the way we move safer, faster, and more efficient. We seek mission-driven, highly skilled people with deep experience in fast-paced, rapidly growing, tech development environments. We are looking for strong software engineers at all levels to help in developing and deploying simulation tooling for next-generation self-driving systems. This requires strong ownership over critical components. Candidates need to understand, experiment, improve, and field robust, scalable simulation tooling for testing in real-time, safety-critical applications. We are focused on building a product. Candidates should have a mission-driven mindset to deliver a product, which entails significant cross-functional interaction, and a customer-centric obsession to deliver a compelling product.
What Success Looks Like:
- Be part of a team of engineers to develop robust, scalable simulation tooling for testing self-driving vehicle systems. This will include simulation tooling for testing end-to-end autonomy, autonomy behavior, and log playback with simulation.
- Own delivery of simulation tooling components that provide rapid, scalable, repeatable, and robust simulation tooling that meets the needs of autonomy developers.
- Provide input to the technical direction for the team, and work cross-functionally to develop the simulation capabilities. This will include working closely with teams such as perception, prediction, planning, controls, and localization, to ensure that the inputs and outputs of the system are properly modeled, and that simulation features developed meet the immediate and long-term needs of the team.
- Identify bottlenecks and limitations in system performance, and develop novel approaches to unlock new capabilities and ensure a reliable system.
- Experience building simulation systems for real-world applications with a strong understanding of the pros and cons of various approaches.
- Knowledge and experience with scalable tools and algorithms.
- Strong experience in software engineering and algorithm design.
- Fluent in Python.
- Experience with C++ a plus.
- Experience with Carla and other simulators is a plus.
We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We believe that diverse teams produce the best ideas and outcomes. We are committed to building a culture of inclusion, entrepreneurship, and innovation across gender, race, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, and identity.
