Senior/Staff Software Engineer - Developer Platforms

Zoox is transforming mobility-as-a-service by developing a fully autonomous, purpose-built fleet designed for AI to drive and humans to enjoy.

Delivering Zoox's mission of autonomous mobility primarily involves two stages - validating software in simulation before testing it in the real world and gathering insights from the data collected after real-world testing. The grand goal of the Developer Platforms team is to help developers at Zoox validate and infer insights from their changes across the autonomy stack in a reliable, and performant manner with faster iteration between the two stages.

To that end, the DevX team at Zoox owns and maintains products that developers across the Perception, Prediction, Motion Planning, and release teams rely on in their day-to-day workflow. We are looking for Software Engineers with experience and an active interest in building web-based products with intuitive frontends and performant microservices. You'll be working closely with the customers from the requirements gathering phase all the way to the maintenance phase. If you are someone with a passion for web development and are willing to take ownership and responsibility then you will be a great fit for the team.
