Role description
Major Purpose:
Works on a product team and supports product design by planning its work, coordinating with others, and writing and testing code to deliver moderately complex functionality on a complete product or significant portion of a product it supports.
This level develops simple designs to solve well-defined problems with guidance from more senior team members.
May assign, coordinate and review portions of the work to support personnel; Makes decisions within established guidelines subject to review by supervisors; Executes high level applications to more complex problems.
Major Duties:
? Develops, codes, configures, and tests programs and systems.
? Evaluates and implements enhancement design solutions to improve cost, quality, and performance of software applications.
? Analyzes assignments and determines software specifications that must be fulfilled to achieve objectives.
? Executes necessary documentation, as directed, or needed.
? Collaborates with other relevant stakeholders and team members to ensure that features meet business needs.
? Follows industry-standard agile software design methodology for development and documentation.
Skills, Abilities, Knowledge:
? Ability to analyze, translate, and define business requirements into technical solutions.
? Excellence in verbal and written communication forms with emphasis on persuasive communication, tact and negotiation.
? Ability to apply engineering principles and concepts for designs.
? Ability to manage many competing priorities/requests in a fast-paced environment
Education:
? Degree in an Engineering/Technology discipline or equivalent experience. - University Degree (4 years or equivalent)
? Degree in an Information Technology discipline or equivalent experience. - University Degree (4 years or equivalent)
Work Experience:
? Previous experience in programming/software development. (1 - 3 years)
? Software development processes experience. (1 - 3 years)
? Participating in Agile Development (1 - 3 years)
? Experience working in an Agile Environment (1 - 3 years)
Glider test will be used for any candidates requested to interview.
-Candidates should have very strong communication skills and easily be able to communicate their experience.
General Description:
We are looking for a highly technical engineer or scientist to create features and support the development of automation and autonomy products for complex off-road vehicles and related control systems using a cloud-based solutions stack. We are open to early or advanced career candidates with strong examples of novel contributions and highly independent work in a fast-paced software delivery environment.
The following are essential attributes/experience:
Excellent coding skills that include production software deployment experience
Big data experience (terabyte or petabyte level data sources)
Core understanding of cloud computing (e.g. AWS services like IAM, Lambda, S3, RDS)
Example Responsibilities (including but are not limited to):
Architect and propose new AWS/Databricks solutions & updates to existing backend systems that process terabyte and petabyte level data.
Work closely with the product management team and end users to understand customer experience and system requirements, build backlog, and prioritize work.
Build infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform)
Improve system scalability (run faster), optimize workflows to reduce cloud costs
Create and update APIs (REST) and backend processes running on AWS Lambda
Build/support solutions involving containerization (e.g. Docker) and databases (e.g. PostgreSQL/PostGIS)
MLOps (e.g. deploy CVML models via Sagemaker, MLFlow) & Data analysis (AWS/Databricks stack with SQL/Pyspark)
Optional:
Experience developing software plugins for the Rockwell retro encabulator
Migration of CI/CD pipelines to Github Actions
Enhance monitoring and alerting for multiple systems (e.g. Datadog)
Enable field testing and customer support operations by debugging and fixing data issues
Work with data scientists to scalably fetch and manipulate large data sets to build models and do analysis
