As a Staff Software Engineer, Infrastructure

• Own the core systems that power AeroVect’s autonomous driving platform
• Design and scale infrastructure that supports development, testing, and deployment across the full autonomy stack — ensuring reliability, performance, and seamless integration between software and real-world robotic systems
• Help define technical strategy, architect scalable systems, and mentor engineers while advancing the robustness of AeroVect’s production autonomy platform

What You Will Do

• Architect, develop, and maintain core infrastructure supporting AeroVect’s autonomous driving software stack
• Build robust CI/CD pipelines to enable rapid, reliable software delivery and validation across simulation and real-world testing environments
• Collaborate closely with autonomy and systems engineers to define scalable software interfaces and deployment strategies
• Design and maintain cloud-based infrastructure (AWS) for scalable computation, data processing, and system telemetry
• Implement and manage infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation) for consistent, automated provisioning
• Develop automation tools and internal services to streamline developer workflows, integration testing, and operational monitoring
• Establish and enforce best practices for software reliability, observability, and system security
• Drive root-cause analysis for infrastructure and deployment issues; design long-term solutions to improve system resilience
• Mentor engineers and influence best practices in infrastructure design, CI/CD, and cloud operations

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
