Software Engineer, Integration Tools, Vehicle Software

The Integration Platforms team builds the software that supports our ever-expanding customer fleet from prototype to production. We own a broad portfolio of tools that engineers across the organization rely on every day-full-stack web applications and dashboards, backend services and data pipelines, desktop applications, and clients that run directly on our production hardware, powering workflows across Vehicle, Optimus, Autopilot, and Energy software. We ve built capabilities that let engineers dynamically query the fleet for real-time answers to questions like "show me a random sample of 100 cars currently driving at least 60 MPH with the windows down and the AC on," and systems to live stream data off any vehicle, anytime, anywhere in the world.

As a member of this team, you ll build and own software from front-end UI and backend APIs to the data architecture behind real-time querying and streaming, and the desktop and in-vehicle clients that interface with devices out in the field. You ll also help build and scale the infrastructure powering our automated global localization pipeline, so that infotainment and mobile UI, release notes, voice commands, navigation, and alerts feel natural for drivers in every market. Throughout, you ll use and build AI agents, skills, and MCP-based workflows to accelerate your own work and scale your impact, while staying focused on shipping robust, well-architected software.

• Design, build, and ship features across the stack - React/TypeScript front ends, Go and Python services and APIs, and the schema, query, and caching layers that keep our tools responsive
• Implement and optimize historical and real-time data paths: ingestion, streaming, and the indexing/caching strategies that let engineers query and stream off devices at fleet scale
• Build and scale web-based localization infrastructure and end-to-end workflows-incorporating AI and LLMs-to automate review and QA, and develop tooling that surfaces linguistic, layout, and rendering issues across platforms and locales
• Own features from design through production-spanning DevOps, product security, testing, and validation-while partnering cross-functionally to identify bottlenecks and resolve issues
• Leverage and build AI agents, skills, and MCP servers to accelerate engineering workflows and multiply your own throughput
• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or the equivalent in experience with evidence of exceptional ability
• Proficient in Go and Python, with hands-on experience building full-stack applications using modern web frameworks
• Experience with backend infrastructure: relational databases, containerization, workflow orchestration, and stream processing/messaging systems
• Experience shipping software beyond the browser-desktop or native/system-level clients; comfort working with vehicle data, CAN, or ethernet interfaces a strong plus
• Strong communicator and collaborator who thrives in a fast-paced environment juggling multiple concurrent projects; interest in AI-assisted development (agents, skills, MCP) and exposure to localization/i18n a plus
