Design, develop, and test embedded software for vehicle charging and power systems; integrate supplier subsystems; produce requirements, design docs, and test plans; collaborate cross-functionally across engineering teams; participate in prototyping through validation for safe, production-quality vehicle power control.

Lead frontend modernization by migrating legacy web apps into a microfrontend ecosystem, ship production-critical React/Next.js code, define reusable platform patterns, and collaborate cross-functionally to ensure performance, developer experience, and long-term maintainability.

The Principal Software Engineer will design and oversee architecture for software systems, collaborate with teams, and ensure robust, secure solutions for debt solutions products.

Design, implement, debug, and validate real-time embedded software and board support packages across multiple platforms. Enable bring-up of new hardware, build low-level frameworks and drivers, collaborate with electrical and validation engineers, and support the full software development lifecycle for Zoox vehicle platforms.

Design, build, and operate a cloud-first platform: architect scalable AWS backend services, own infrastructure via AWS CDK, develop full-stack components (Node.js, React, React Native), optimize PostgreSQL, and drive platform technical direction while supporting production and incident response.

Design, develop, and test real-time embedded firmware in C/C++ for battery management systems (cell balancing, charging, thermal management, contactor control). Integrate supplier subsystems, perform hardware bring-up and debugging, create requirements/design/test documentation, and collaborate with cross-functional vehicle, controls, and validation teams through the software development lifecycle.

Build and operate GovCloud production infrastructure and Kubernetes clusters, own GitOps CI/CD, observability, security/compliance (SOC2/CMMC/FedRAMP), contribute backend code (Python/TypeScript), and improve developer experience and resilience.

Own and set technical direction for the Everand backend, building scalable, reliable systems for discoverability, personalization, and core consumption journeys. Drive architecture, platform health (CI/CD, staging, DBs, queues, cost, observability), mentor engineers, lead cross-team planning, modernize legacy systems, and partner with product, design, analytics, web/mobile, and ML to support experimentation and telemetry-driven decisions.

The Senior Software Developer will collaborate with a remote team to enhance the Neuron platform, focusing on software development tasks including distributed system design and maintenance of features.
