- Uphold quality and efficiency standards for the team.
- Advocate for and lead efforts to implement industry best practices for AI and software development.
Core Responsibilities
- Design and Plan: In partnership with your colleagues, you will take ownership of significant portions of the software stack. You will help with planning and prioritization by assessing both current and longer term software needs, breaking plans down into a series of manageable tasks, and resolving competing priorities.
- Implement: You will execute on your plans by carrying your ideas through from conception to completion.
- Communicate: You will regularly communicate progress on your various efforts and give team presentations on newly developed tools and technologies when applicable/appropriate. You will also thoroughly document your work in appropriate forums, including code comments and design documents.
Minimum Qualifications
- BS in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent field of study
- Willing and able to travel both within the continental US and internationally as required (less than 20% of the time) to support customer engagements, meet with contracting partners, and attend customer product demonstrations.
- 10+ years of postgraduate experience in software development (preferred), systems engineering, robotics, systems analysis, or other related fields
- Experience developing highly-available, performant, scalable web applications
- Strong expertise in programming languages such as Python or TypeScript. Experience with other languages (e.g., Java, C++, Rust, etc.) preferred
- Long, successful history of bringing software from initial conception through to architecture, development, testing, and release into production.
- Proficiency in software development methodologies and best practices (e.g., Agile practices, CI/CD, test-driven development.)
- Strong Linux fundamentals (bash scripting, operating system configuration) and familiarity with common developer and devops tools such as Terraform, Git, Github, and the Atlassian suite tools Jira and Confluence.
Nice to Haves
- MS or PhD in Software Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent experience
- Equivalent experience includes tech leadership in a complex space, driving technical design and execution cross-collaboratively across multiple teams and organizations
- Experience working with AI and machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch)
- Knowledge of cloud computing platforms (e.g., GCP, AWS)
- Experience with software development and interfaces on the cloud (e.g., GCP, AWS)
