Job Description
Simulation is essential for Zoox to rapidly iterate on our driving software and hardware, and to validate our safety before we drive in the real world. We create virtual worlds to challenge our robots, from real-world data, entirely novel scenarios, or a combination of both. Our simulations need to run at a huge scale to cover everything that might happen, and to help prove our driving to be safe.
As a Simulation C++ Platform Engineer, you will build the architecture on which simulation relies, with a specific focus on our high-speed, GPU-based simulation framework. Our success depends on you building solid, deterministic foundations that enable rapid scaling of our ML training pipelines and ensure seamless integration across the entire self-driving software stack.
