Senior Software Engineer - Integration

Mission

Own the integration of Teleo's autonomy and vehicle subsystems into a reliable, cohesive platform. Bridge the gap between independently developed components - perception, controls, networking, hardware interfaces - and make them work together on real hardware.

Core Responsibilities

• Develop features across the full vehicle software stack: sensor interfaces, communication layers, diagnostics, and system services

• Integrate and validate subsystems from multiple teams into a unified, working platform

• Build and maintain backend infrastructure and tooling that support vehicle operations

• Design and implement inter-process and inter-system communication for vehicle and operator systems

• Contribute to OTA update pipelines and deployment workflows in collaboration with the full-stack team

• Write unit tests and help establish integration testing practices across the codebase

• Participate in remote support rotations, including occasional early/late hours

Required Qualifications

• B.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.

• 4+ years of professional software engineering in C/C++ and Python

• Strong computer systems fundamentals: OS internals, memory management, process lifecycle, IPC

• Hands-on embedded Linux experience at the application level

• Comfortable reading schematics and understanding hardware interfaces at a conceptual level

• Demonstrated ability to work across multiple subsystems and codebases

• Comfortable working on-site in Palo Alto, CA

Strong Experience With

• Linux systems programming: sockets, serial, device interfaces, systemd, debugging tools

• CAN bus protocols and serial communication

• Building and integrating multi-process systems with complex inter-component dependencies

• Debugging at the system level: logs, traces, packet captures, core dumps

• Working in cross-functional environments alongside firmware, perception, and controls teams

Nice to Have

• ROS experience

• Networking fundamentals: VLANs, Layer 2/3 debugging, packet analysis

• Rust

• Experience bootstrapping test infrastructure: CI integration testing, hardware-in-the-loop setups

• Early-stage startup experience - comfortable with broad scope and fast iteration
