Staff Engineer, Core Platform Integration

What you'll do

• Own platform integration across SIL, HIL, VIL, and edge deployment workflows, ensuring components work together reliably and are easy for developers to use.
• Build and maintain reference workspaces, platform reference implementations, and tooling that accelerate development, testing, deployment, and validation.
• Integrate platform-level software across hardware, sensors, controllers, APIs, configuration, orchestration, and fleet/device management systems.
• Support embedded platform bring-up and hardware diversification across developer boards, iron birds, aircraft/vehicle test platforms, and other reference hardware.
• Improve platform stability, API quality, developer experience, and system scalability for mission-critical product and customer commitments.
• Partner with autonomy, hardware, product, and program teams to identify integration gaps and deliver durable solutions.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years experience with strong software engineering experience in robotics, autonomy, embedded systems, distributed systems, or similarly complex platforms.
• Strong experience with C++ and Python and experience building developer tools, configuration systems, orchestration frameworks, or automation.
• Experience integrating and debugging software across Linux-based systems, hardware interfaces, deployment environments, and APIs, including use of measurement or diagnostic tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, or protocol analyzers to debug embedded communication interfaces.
• B.S. or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• Ability to work independently in ambiguous technical areas and drive cross-functional integration efforts to completion.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with SIL, HIL, and VIL workflows for autonomy, robotics, aerospace, automotive, or defense systems.
• Experience with embedded Linux, BSP development, build systems, device trees, bootloaders, or hardware bring-up.
• Experience with edge deployment, device discovery, fleet management, OTA workflows, or application deployment to remote devices.
• Experience with platforms such as Jetson, Qualcomm, i.MX8, or similar embedded compute hardware.
• Experience integrating sensor drivers, controller interfaces, vehicle interfaces, hardware abstraction layers, or reference test platforms.
