• Build features to enable customers to perform software‑driven validation including a unified data layer for systems models, test case orchestration, safety case management, and KPI analysis
• Enable customers to define and measure coverage of their autonomous systems and dynamically failure‑find within the state space using machine learning techniques
• Design and scale data systems to performantly ingest millions of simulation data points daily and support high‑speed querying and visualization through interactive data workflows
• Work with internal teams to deliver software to support the teams’ validation workflows

We're looking for someone who has

• At least 3-6 years of industry experience
• Experience with data modeling for customer workflows
• Experience with containerization and other modern software development workflows
