As a C++ Software Engineer within the Autonomy group at Tesla, you will have the opportunity to apply your technical skills to a variety of system components & foundational code targeting higher performance of the Tesla Bot.

The nature of the role means that the code you will write, debug, and maintain will almost always connect with a variety of other components.

You will be building robust code foundations for the autonomy teams to write their applications on top of and evangelize best software practices for the better of the Tesla Bot.

You will be developing system tools to benchmark, characterize and optimize the latency and throughput of the autonomy workloads on the Tesla Bot.

Optimize hardware resources usage, leverage custom hardware components where appropriate.
