Job Description

Job Description:

We are hiring a Software Engineer, Autonomy Integration, who will be embedded in the Planning and Controls team and work day to day with Pilot's cross-functional Integration team. In this hands-on software role, you will build durable integration capability: reliable environments, representative end-to-end tests, diagnosable failures, and software that is ready for hardware and flight testing. You will draw on your experience in planning, controls, or autonomy decision-making and your systems integration skills to work across domain boundaries. 

The Pilot Integration team provides stable reference integrations that component teams can use to add new capabilities and prove that they work as part of the larger autonomy stack. It builds and maintains the environments where Hivemind Pilot's autonomy capabilities come together. The team's work spans planning and controls, perception, simulation, vehicle interfaces, deployment, and system-level testing. 

We are hiring across multiple experience levels. Depending on experience, engineers may begin with well-defined integrations and tests or independently own end-to-end workflows and ambiguous cross-system investigations.
