Job description

Software Developer Engineer, Last Mile Delivery Technology

The Last Mile team helps get packages from delivery stations to a customer’s doorstep. Our tech team is here to provide new innovations for customers; for example, we are building a globally connected fleet of smart delivery vehicles, both traditionally gasoline powered and future electrical powered vehicles.

Our team consists of technologists who are combining cutting edge vehicle IoT technologies (sensors, embedded devices, wearables, and robotics), real-time data streams (video, vehicle telematics, location, and presence), together with machine learning models and algorithms – to create solutions that allow us to deliver faster and better.

Playing a key role in the Connected Vehicle team, we are looking for Software Development Engineer for developing solutions to access and utilizing existing array of sensors within our current fleet of delivery vehicles; and help us design the future fleet of delivery vehicles for the next decades to come.

You will fully understand the integration from edge computing systems to cloud data analytic platform and tools. You will have understanding of user applications with UX optimization, data processing pipeline with connected devices, and data analytic tooling with big-data. You will bring experience of developing similar applications at scale, preferably in consumer or industrial verticals.

This role requires autonomy and an ability to deliver results, often within the ambiguity of building a v1 product. You will need to work efficiently to build the right things with limited guidance, raising the bar to create an amazing experience for our customers.

Key job responsibilities
- Develop advanced motion planning strategies, sensor data integrate, and enhance the safety and efficiency of autonomous platform.
- Bachelor's or higher in Robotics, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience in motion planning/control systems.
- Expertise in motion planning algorithms, control theory, ROS, and programming (C++, Python, MATLAB).

- 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language

- 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
