Latitude AI (lat.ai) develops automated driving technologies, including L3, for Ford vehicles at scale. We’re driven by the opportunity to reimagine what it’s like to drive and make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone.

When you join the Latitude team, you’ll work alongside leading experts across machine learning and robotics, cloud platforms, mapping, sensors and compute systems, test operations, systems and safety engineering – all dedicated to making a real, positive impact on the driving experience for millions of people.

As a Ford Motor Company subsidiary, we operate independently to develop automated driving technology at the speed of a technology startup. Latitude is headquartered in Pittsburgh with engineering centers in Dearborn, Mich., and Palo Alto, Calif.

Meet The Team

The Software Factory team is responsible for the developer build experience, making the process of developing, testing, and releasing software critical to Latitude’s mission. Team members develop, maintain, and improve an end-to-end infrastructure pipeline for a distributed build environment, and are integral to Product Development efforts to adopt new tools and technologies into a hermetic, deterministic, and scalable build ecosystem. Inside the team we use and maintain the build tooling (bazel, cmake), write build and test authoring tools (starlark, python), manage build environments (docker, containers), leverage a distributed remote execution and caching system (buildfarm), and host CI/CD resources that developers interact with to test and land changes (jenkins).

What You’ll Do

• Work alongside dedicated build, network, and product engineers with decades of experience
• Measure, inspect, and monitor the services which support builds to ensure continuous operation and generate high priority improvement definitions
• Develop solutions for independent and integration-based service reliability risks
• Debug across a wide range of service modalities to find and solve problems for developers and processes
• Respond to scalability, configuration, and scheduling issues with high visibility within the team and engineering organization customer base
• Provide application-level verification during dependent system maintenance periods, representing the continued ability to deliver software build services, working with support engineers from peer teams providing hardware and cluster orchestration capabilities
• Assess new product designs as they apply to system utilization and requirements for build and CI
• Identify gaps in observability for large scale distributed build infrastructure systems
  
  

What You'll Need To Succeed

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field and 2+ years of relevant experience, Master's degree, or PhD
• Knowledge of Distributed systems and storage hierarchies
• Fluency in linux systems operation, bash and python scripting languages
• Understanding of Distributed Service Deployments and Concepts
  
  

Nice To Have

• High-Availability concepts and practices
• Kubernetes definitions and deployments
• Experience with Bazel or other Starlark-based build system
• Java, C++ Language competencies and principles
• SQL, Git/Github, Grafana domain knowledge
• protobuf, gRPC, REST http semantics and protocol underpinnings
  
  

What We Offer You

• Competitive compensation packages
• High-quality individual and family medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Health savings account with available employer match
• Employer-matched 401(k) retirement plan with immediate vesting
• Employer-paid group term life insurance and the option to elect voluntary life insurance
• Paid parental leave
• Paid medical leave
• Unlimited vacation
• 15 paid holidays
• Daily lunches, snacks, and beverages available in all office locations
• Pre-tax spending accounts for healthcare and dependent care expenses
• Pre-tax commuter benefits
• Monthly wellness stipend
