Senior Software Engineer - Autonomy Core Frameworks
Torcrobotics · Ann Arbor, MI
About this role
**Senior Software Engineer - Autonomy Core Frameworks** **About the Company** At Torc, we believe autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business. A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners. Now a part of the Daimler family, we focus solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight. **Meet the Team** The Senior Autonomy Core Frameworks Software Engineer plays a critical role in architecting and advancing the foundational frameworks that underpin Torc's autonomous driving stack. This role helps own the technical direction for software in core autonomy components—raising the bar on code quality and driving improvements across the autonomy software. As a senior technical leader, you’ll collaborate closely with the Behavior and Perception teams to design robust, composable architectural patterns that serve as the foundation for safe, performant, reliable autonomous operation. This position demands deep expertise in software architecture and autonomous vehicle fundamentals. **What You’ll Do** - Lead the architecture, design, implementation, and evolution of core frameworks that serve as the foundation for Torc's autonomous driving stack, including state management, inter-component communication, abstraction layers, and common utilities used across all software systems. - Drive the technical direction for real-time C++ architectural components and patterns responsible for reliable system-wide data flow, component coordination, error handling, and operational observability. - Establish scalable architectural patterns and abstractions that enable autonomous driving capabilities, while driving technical tradeoff discussions and long-term design decisions that shape the entire platform. - Collaborate across Behavior and Perception teams to keep integration boundaries clean and shared abstractions coherent. - Lead architecture reviews, design discussions, and code reviews while establishing engineering standards that improve reliability, maintainability, testability, and scalability across the platform. - Mentor software engineers through technical coaching, architectural guidance, and day-to-day collaboration while raising engineering standards and fostering technical excellence across the organization. - Champion architectural quality through systematic validation, comprehensive testing strategies, observability frameworks, and production readiness practices that ensure platform robustness at scale. *Note: The provided job description appears truncated after the “Contribute to …” section.*
