Staff Software Engineer - AV Labs

About the role

Uber is launching AV Labs to accelerate the autonomous technology ecosystem. We're building out a high-velocity team of multi-disciplinary experts to turn real-world operations into high-quality data for our autonomous partners. This team is focused on the hardest problem in AV today: unlocking real-world, long-tail driving data.

Autonomy is now a data race-and Uber has an edge: We collect rare, real-world driving data at a scale and capital efficiency no one else can match. As a Staff Software Engineer, you will be at the forefront of Physical AI, architecting the AV performance frameworks that support fast iteration on high-performance standards for the autonomous industry.

You will drive the development of high-velocity driving performance and validation pipelines, move beyond solving isolated bugs to building collaborative system software designs, and establish innovative automated methodologies that empower our partners to accelerate the safe, reliable, and scalable deployment of autonomous vehicles across global markets.

What the Candidate Will Do Software-Driven Evaluation Frameworks: Lead the design and implementation of automated software frameworks for benchmarking autonomous system capabilities. Audit partner software performance against Uber AV Labs' safety and efficiency KPIs using high-throughput data analysis. Data Pipeline Optimization: Architect and optimize high-velocity data pipelines and software stack throughput.
