Jobs at AeroVect

Own end-to-end creation, validation, and maintenance of HD maps for autonomous airport tractors. Intake mapping requests, edit maps (lanes, routes, regulatory elements) using Lanelet2/OpenStreetMap tooling and JOSM, submit pull requests through Map CI, validate in simulation and on-vehicle tests, document results, and coordinate vendor map deliveries.

Design and integrate mechanical systems for sensors, computing, and autonomous hardware on production vehicles. Rapidly prototype, test, and iterate designs; lead assembly, validation, and troubleshooting of retrofitted vehicles; collaborate with hardware, software, and systems teams; and mentor junior engineers while ensuring manufacturability and robust production-ready solutions.

Own and productionize core localization systems (state estimation, mapping, calibration). Build monitoring, diagnostics, validation, and deployment tooling. Integrate sensors, tune performance, run regression testing, and iterate using data from real autonomous airport operations to enable driverless capability.

Lead design, analysis, and verification/validation of autonomous vehicle subsystems. Develop data pipelines for V&V, author and maintain requirements and architecture artifacts, define safety behaviors, track KPIs, surface risks, collaborate cross-functionally, mentor junior engineers, and support deployments. Up to 25% travel.

As a Platform Engineer, you will develop and maintain software for an autonomous vehicle fleet, focusing on system reliability, data optimization, and collaboration with engineering teams.

Lead and own deployment, release, and change-management processes for autonomous ground vehicle fleets. Approve deployments and software releases, manage bring-up and commissioning, schedule zero-downtime updates, maintain vehicle configuration records, and ensure verification, validation, and regulatory/customer-compliant documentation.

Design, build, and maintain cloud-based data pipelines and infrastructure on AWS, integrating on-prem and cloud flows. Implement IaC, CI/CD, containerization, observability, and automation to ensure high-throughput, reliable data ingestion and processing for autonomous systems.

Field-based Integration Engineer who validates sensors and hardware, conducts autonomy and release-level testing, debugs autonomy software, maintains fleet software, collects and documents test data, and trains test operators. Regular travel to airports and outdoor testing; supports fleet health and field issue triage.

Operate and test autonomous tractors in the field, identify process/tooling improvements, report and analyze abnormal behavior using logs and system data, debug and help root-cause issues while collaborating with engineers.

Own and extend simulation tooling for autonomy: integrate simulators with the production autonomy stack, ensure determinism and reproducibility, run large-scale cloud scenario execution, build evaluation and triage tooling, author scenarios, and maintain pipeline performance and coverage for V&V and release gating.

Lead end-to-end delivery of the Atlanta Airport (ATL) autonomous vehicle program. Manage schedules, risks, cross-functional dependencies, launch readiness, governance, and stakeholder alignment across Engineering, Systems, Safety, and Operations.

Lead and scale the autonomy organization, owning technical strategy and roadmap for perception, prediction, planning, controls, and localization. Manage hiring, operating cadence, and delivery across the autonomy stack, interface with Systems, Safety, Platform, Hardware, Simulation, and Product, and remain hands-on in design reviews and debugging to deliver production autonomy on real vehicles.

Own and operate on-prem garage infrastructure for autonomous vehicle deployments: manage servers, networking, software delivery to vehicles, build C++/Python on‑prem data pipelines, ensure reliable data ingestion and operator tools, and automate deployment and monitoring workflows.

Perform software safety lifecycle tasks: hazard analyses (HARA, FMEA, FTA, STPA), derive and trace software safety requirements, review C++/Python/ROS code, define fail-safes, collaborate across teams, and support safety cases for airport deployment per ISO 26262 and SOTIF.

Lead system safety engineering for autonomous ground vehicles: perform hazard analyses (HARA, FMEA, FTA, STPA), FMEDA and PMHF, calculate failure rates per industry standards, derive and trace functional and hardware safety requirements for supervised and driverless operation, evaluate sensors and drive-by-wire architectures, and support safety case evidence for airport deployment.

Seeking a Staff Cloud Software Engineer to architect and manage scalable cloud systems on AWS, improve security, and mentor engineers.

The Founding Associate will support AeroVect's sales and marketing efforts by creating customer-facing materials, managing contracts, updating the CRM, and facilitating customer communications throughout the sales cycle.

The Senior Reliability Engineer will establish AeroVect's reliability engineering practice, leading reliability analyses and managing external testing programs to ensure product durability and performance across operational environments.

Senior individual contributor owning technical direction across Perception, Prediction, or Planning for on-vehicle autonomy. Design autonomy architecture, drive robustness, oversee model lifecycle and integration, and convert high-level decisions into production code running at scale on vehicles.

The role involves architecting 3D object detection models, managing data pipelines, developing datasets for training, and mentoring junior engineers.
