Job Description

About the Role

As a Software Engineer II on the Build Tools team at Torc Robotics, you will serve as the automation backbone for our entire engineering organization. In this highly impactful DevOps/Full-Stack role, you will take ground-floor ownership of the tools and infrastructure that directly drive our release velocity and system reliability.

You will be responsible for running real production infrastructure, building and maintaining robust CI/CD pipelines, and writing scalable code to support the teams shipping our safety-critical autonomous vehicle (AV) software. We are looking for an engineer with strong Python skills and deep, hands-on experience with containerization and cloud architecture.

What You'll Do

  • Build technology solutions, analyze requirements, and seek guidance from your manager and peers on scope and objectives.
  • Contribute to design discussions, proposing solutions and creating diagrams and design documents for clarity.
  • Write and modify code to deliver solutions, thoroughly testing via unit and integration tests and fixing bugs to ensure quality.
  • Collaborate with teammates to integrate your work into the larger codebase, and give/receive feedback through code review to improve quality and support continuous learning.
  • Actively participate in team meetings, sharing progress and challenges, and seek mentorship to learn best practices.
  • Participate in your team's on-call rotation, troubleshooting incidents, analyzing production logs, and guiding root-cause analysis (RCA).
  • Work across team boundaries to understand how your team’s deliveries contribute to Torc’s broader product offerings.
  • Expand documentation coverage, including runbooks, tutorials, API documentation, and user guidance.

What You'll Need to Succeed

  • Bachelor's degree plus 4+ years of experience; or a Masters Degree plus 0-3 years of experience.
  • Proven ability to tackle critical challenges with minimal supervision and strong independent judgment.
  • Proficiency in AWS core services (IAM, EC2, S3) and container orchestration platforms (Docker, Kubernetes, EKS, ECS).
  • Fluency in an object-oriented language (Python preferred) combined with solid scripting/templating skills (Bash, Go).
  • Hands-on background with build tools (Bazel, CMake, Maven, Gradle) and code coverage analysis (Parasoft, SonarQube, CodeQL).
  • Intermediate competency with CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab, ArgoCD) and workflow tools (Temporal, AWS Step Functions, Argo Workflows).
  • Solid understanding of logging and monitoring ecosystems (Datadog, CloudWatch, New Relic).

Bonus Points

  • Experience with JFrog Artifactory or similar artifact/package registry platforms.
  • Familiarity with safety-critical or embedded software practices (e.g., MISRA C static analysis, VectorCAST or similar unit-test tooling for embedded systems).
  • Exposure to C/C++ in addition to Python.
