About Motional
Motional is at the forefront of the driverless revolution. A joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and Aptiv, we are making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. Our team of pioneers in autonomous technology is preparing to launch commercial robotaxi services.
Mission Summary
As a Software Engineer Simulation Infrastructure, you will advance our offboard testing pipeline by developing simulation cloud and local hardware infrastructure, automating testing processes, and interfacing with both infrastructure and autonomy teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Support cloud simulation infrastructure scaling, cost analysis, and scenario creation.
- Automate Hardware in the Loop (HIL) bench health and accessibility.
- Implement release management automation between software components.
- Collaborate with operations teams to resolve release blockers.
- Data mine for insights to optimize tools and processes.
- Ensure active HIL bench maintenance with critical pipelines.
- Improve UI/UX for simulation and software release processes.
- Enhance triage automations and processes.
Requirements
- 3+ years in Linux, Python, and interfacing with databases (SQL, Postgres, Trino).
- 2+ years working with C++ and Git/CI/CD.
- 1+ year experience with hardware, sensors, low voltage electrical, and AWS Cloud.
