Aurora hires talented people with diverse backgrounds who are ready to help build a transportation ecosystem that will make our roads safer, get crucial goods where they need to go, and make mobility more efficient and accessible for all.
We are looking for a Software Engineer to partner with our Mapping team to deliver stable, fast, scalable solutions for the Aurora Atlas – our mapping storage and versioning system. The Atlas powers many key functions, from map update processes, test creation systems, offboard simulations, visualizations, and onboard perception and decision making. This role is ideal for those who are energized by challenging problems at the intersection of scalable backend systems, data versioning and cross team collaborations.
In This Role You Will
Design, develop, and maintain the scalable backend infrastructure and data processing pipeline for storing and serving map data as we onboard the Aurora Driver to more commercial routes.
Establish and maintain robust testing and performance optimization practices to ensure the stability and scalability of the Atlas system.
Partner closely with internal and external customers to influence existing and future designs and features.
Required Qualifications
4+ years experience building server side and data processing systems.
Expert proficiency in C++ with a commitment to writing clean, testable, and production-ready code.
Deep understanding of distributed systems principles, with a proven ability to deliver scalable, reliable backend systems.
Strong understanding of cloud-native technologies (e.g., AWS, GCP, Kubernetes).
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Proven ability to rapidly learn new technologies and adapt to evolving requirements.
Desirable Qualifications
M.S. or Ph.D in Computer Science or a similar technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
Domain experience with geospatial data, mapping systems, or high-throughput data pipelines.
Working proficiency in Python and Golang.
The base salary range for this position is $162,000 - $260,000. Aurora’s pay ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, the successful candidate’s starting base pay will be determined based on factors including job-related skills, experience, qualifications, relevant education or training, and market conditions. These ranges may be modified in the future. The successful candidate will also be eligible for an annual bonus, equity compensation, and benefits.

Working at Aurora
