- Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and established code bases.
- Experience implementing robot or autonomous vehicle testing frameworks in a software-in-the-loop or hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) environment.
- Experience with modern build and deployment tooling (e.g. NixOS, Terraform).
- Experience designing complex software systems, and iterating upon designs via a technical design review process.
- Familiarity with industry standard monitoring, logging, and data management tools and best practices.Note: The above bullet points describe the ideal candidate.
