About the job
Debugs and fixes field-reported software issues across autonomous maritime vehicle systems, validating fixes through simulation and standard deployment processes.
What you'll do
- Reproduce and diagnose field anomalies using recorded data, logs, metrics, and visualization tools; determine whether the cause is software, configuration, or deployment.
- Implement and test fixes across relevant subsystems, then ship them through CI and versioned rollout; validate in simulation or hardware-in-the-loop where appropriate.
- Document root causes and fixes, help develop an on-call/triage runbook, and escalate issues requiring changes by subsystem owners.
What they ask for
- Experience debugging code you did not write under time pressure and with incomplete information.
- Comfort reading and fixing code in at least two of Rust, modern C++, Python, and Go.
- Experience with observability tooling such as Prometheus/Grafana-class metrics or Loki/ELK-class logs.
- Linux and systems fluency; willingness to work close to hardware and sensors and travel 25%+ of the time on average.
Nice to have
- Experience with robotics middleware, sensor drivers, or real-time data pipelines.
- Experience with simulation-in-the-loop or hardware-in-the-loop testing, CI/CD and versioned deployments for embedded or fleet software, or on-call/field support for shipped hardware.
