For more information, visit Description We are looking for an experienced Staff Software Engineer who can design and build best-in-class planning systems for autonomous driving in structured, low-speed environments. In this role, you'll be the technical backbone of the planning stack — owning the design and implementation of production-grade mission planning, behavior planning, and motion planning software. You'll work across the full planning pipeline to achieve category-defining vehicle autonomy for the airside, tackling hard problems in trajectory optimization, decision‐making under uncertainty,
and real‐time constraint optimization. This opportunity offers a deeply technical engineer the chance to shape a market‐defining enterprise product that combines autonomous vehicle technology with a robotics‐as‐a‐service (RaaS) business model. This role reports to our Planning Tech Lead and works closely with the autonomy engineering team. You Will: Design, implement, and iterate on the mission planner, behavior planner, and motion planner for autonomous ground support equipment operating in airport airside environments. Drive key technical decisions across the planning stack — selecting algorithms, defining interfaces, and establishing the architecture that the team builds on. Prototype and evaluate new planning approaches (e.g., optimization‐based methods, search‐based planners, learning‐augmented pipelines) and bring the best ideas to production.
