Software Operations is where data quality meets real-world impact.
Key Responsibilities
Autonomous vehicles learn from data. The accuracy of that data depends on people who care enough to get every detail right. If that's how you're wired, we want to meet you .
We are looking for a Software Operations Specialist for a 12 month term to support quality control, tool testing, and workflow improvement across the internal systems used in robotics and autonomy development. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role and a great place to build deep familiarity with how AI systems are built and validated at a leading autonomy company.
You will review software outputs, test internal tools, reproduce issues, and document findings that improve system reliability and team efficiency. The problems you are solving are real: annotation defects that go uncaught can affect model training. Tool bugs that go undocumented can slow down engineering teams. Patterns that go unnoticed can compound quietly until they become something bigger. Your work interrupts all of that.
Precision and consistency matter more than speed here. You will apply defined criteria carefully, document every assessment clearly, and escalate anything outside your scope, knowing that your Operations Lead is there to support you. What you bring is rigor, reliability, and a genuine eye for what's off.
Requirements
You are the kind of person who notices things others miss, taking the time to document them clearly rather than move on. You find satisfaction in applied consistency: applying a rubric the same way on item 1 and item 200, and catching the edge case that slipped by. You want your work to connect to something larger, and you're ready to build deep expertise in a domain that's shaping the future of how people move.
1–3 years of experience in QA, software testing, operations, content review, or a closely related field.
Familiarity with U.S. roadways and driving behavior.
Demonstrated ability to apply evaluation criteria consistently across high volumes of work without losing precision.
High attention to detail: you catch what others miss and document it in a way that someone else can immediately act on.
Clear, specific written communication: defect notes that describe exactly what failed, how to reproduce it, and what the impact is.
Comfort learning new tools and working across technical systems without needing everything explained upfront.
Reliable and self-directed: you meet cadences and deadlines consistently without needing to be chased.
