Zoox's Robot Software Infrastructure team is seeking a passionate software engineer to help develop and advance the common performant operating system that powers several devices on our Robotaxi including onboard AI systems running Autonomy software. This team develops platform-level software and services, including custom operating systems that enable complex, hardware-accelerated workloads critical for autonomous driving on automotive-grade hardware. We work closely with cross-functional teams—including other software developers, hardware engineering, release management, manufacturing and operations—to support vehicle development and deployment at scale. If you are excited to explore a broad problem space and are mindful of how components fit within a larger system, you may be a great fit!
Design, develop, and maintain the operating system platform that powers various on-bot devices and applications
Configure and manage embedded Linux build systems (e.g., Yocto) and bootloader processes (e.g., U-Boot) to ensure reliable system startup and maintenance
Develop and optimize device drivers and kernel-space components using C, C++, or Rust to meet performance and reliability requirements
Have a deep understanding of Linux, build systems like Yocto, and bootloaders like U-Boot
Be familiar with Linux init systems (e.g., systemd), containerization concepts (e.g., chroot, cgroups, Linux namespaces), and filesystems
Understand device drivers and kernel-space code and proficiency in a language without automatic memory management (e.g., C or C++), and in multiple scripting languages like bash and Python
Familiarity with security software: PKI, secure boot, OTA software update, hardware key storage, etc.
2+ years of delivering custom Embedded Linux operating systems
