📋 Description

• Own latency, throughput, memory utilization, and thread safety for the real-time decision-making pipeline. • Instrument the behavior pipeline to measure runtime performance, isolating latency spikes, resource contention, and memory inefficiencies. • Refactor high-frequency execution loops to maximize cache utilization, eliminate dynamic memory allocations, and reduce tail latency. • Re-engineer thread boundaries and synchronization logic to maximize multi-core parallel processing while ensuring thread safety. • Build automated micro-benchmarks and runtime telemetry into CI/CD pipelines to prevent performance regressions. • Partner with autonomy teams to establish performant, low-overhead C++ module interfaces for new behavioral features.

🎯 Requirements

• Deep understanding of CPU cache hierarchies (L1/L2/L3), memory alignment, lock-free concurrency models, and Linux OS thread scheduling. • Hands-on experience with Linux profiling toolchains (e.g., Perf, Tracy, eBPF) and dynamic sanitizers (ASan, TSan, Valgrind). • Strong proficiency in modern C++ (C++17/20) with a focus on writing low-overhead abstractions, RAII, and cache-friendly data layouts. • Familiarity with micro-benchmarking frameworks (e.g., Google Benchmark) and performance-regression testing in continuous integration. • Experience in performance-critical software environments such as game engines, financial technology, database runtimes, or operating system kernels. • B.S. Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or an equivalent degree. • Master’s degree or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field is desirable. • At least 5 years of professional experience is desirable. • Prior experience in AV, robotics, or high-throughput real-time control systems is desirable. • Proven track record of designing and scaling automated CI/CD performance testing infrastructure is desirable.

🏖️ Benefits

• Comprehensive healthcare suite including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability plans. Domestic partners who have been residing together at least one year are also eligible to participate. • Health Savings and Flexible Spending Healthcare and Dependent Care Accounts available. • Rich retirement benefits, including an immediately vested employer safe harbor match. • Generous paid parental leave as well as a phased return to work. • Flexible vacation policy in addition to paid company holidays. • Total Wellness Program providing numerous resources for overall wellbeing
